Umpqua River Scenic Byway

Oregon

Enjoy a 66-mile/106-kilometer drive as diverse as the river itself, rolling through historic timber towns, wine country, fishing hot spots and fur-trading posts as it twists through the Coast Range on its way to the Pacific.

Along with generations of Native Americans who lived along its banks, the riches of the Umpqua River have long nurtured fur traders, loggers, fishermen and farmers. Its wealth of natural and historical treasures unfolds as you follow this river-valley route, a pleasant meandering trip through the dense forests of the Coast Range and along the Umpqua’s clear-flowing waters.
