Perfect summer day trips around Oregon

from Peak Northwest Hosted by The Oregonian/OregonLive

Epic summer vacations are nice, but there’s something to be said about a simple day trip. Here in western Oregon, it’s incredibly easy to find any number of beautiful day trips, with the ocean, mountains, forest, rivers and desert all found within a three-hour radius. On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we dive into a few great options for this summer. Day trips prove that you don’t need a big budget or lengthy itinerary to enjoy an adventure –you don’t even need a car. As you make your summer vacation plans, consider these local excursions that make vacation quick, easy and (relatively) stress free. Here are some highlights from this week’s show: The key to dealing with Cannon Beach traffic jams? Go by bus. Breitenbush Hot Springs is a perfect place to unwind for the day. Day hikes big and small are found in the Tillamook State Forest. You’ll never see everything on the Fruit Loop in one day, but that’s probably for the best.
