Steens  Mountain Hike Steens Mountain in Eastern Oregon - Explore the Steens Mountain with this easy hike. There are three short paths that lead to viewpoints of Kiger Gorge, the East Rim, and Steens Summit. A longer trail descends to Wildhorse Lake, in a treeless bowl of wildflowers.

Elkhorn Scenic Byway
This 106-mile loop takes you through the Elkhorn Mountains, gold-mining ghost-towns and along elegant lakes and rivers. You can learn a lot of history here as well as hunt, fish, camp, boat, ski and hike.

Eagle Cap Hike Climbing Eagle Cap in Eastern Oregon. This 9,572-foot hike to the hub of the Wallowa Mountains is not for the weary. This is a great two-day hike to the summit or a beautiful, shorter day hike, if you prefer.

Hiking Anthony Lake
Just as beautiful, but more accessible than the more famous Wallowa Mountains nearby, the Elkhorn Range boasts craggy granite peaks and high alpine lakes surrounded by wildflowers.

Hells Canyon Scenic Byway
Leave the fast pace and fenced-in views of Interstate 84 and follow the contours of the land into slower times and wilder places.

John Day Fossil Beds National Monument
Within the heavily eroded volcanic deposits of the scenic John Day River basin is a world-renowned fossil record spanning 40 million years.

Eagle Cap Excursion Train
The Eagle Cap Excursion Train runs again this summer. Trips of varying lengths and portions of the railroad will be offered weekly from May through September with two Fall Foliage runs in October.
