Oregon is not unknown in the wine world. It is the fourth-largest wine producing state in the US, has the third most wineries of any state, and has won many awards, especially for its reknowned Pinot Noirs.

However, Oregon is still in its infancy as far as wine tourism. And that makes our tour in Oregon special.

We spend five days in Oregon, visiting wine regions ranging from Eugene to the northern Willamette Valley to the Hood River appellation. This is a Multisport Tour and we visit the wine regions by walking, bicycling, and canoeing. Most of these activities are not currently organized or available in the Oregon wine country outside our tour. We have created unique vineyard walks, arranged a canoe trip on the Willamette River with a stop at a local winery, and planned a bike route through the Hood River region running down the lower slopes of Mount Hood.

And Oregon's wine country is unique. It is spread over thousands of acres and dominated by small, family-run wineries. Each owner/vintner we meet has a great story and we will hear many of them as we try the local Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Riesling wines. You will be in the vanguard of active wine tourism if you join us in Oregon next year.
