Small towns and scenic views
Between the Elkhorn and the Wallowa Mountains, the Powder River cuts through sweeping farmland and rolling hills on its curvy journey to the Snake River.
The west alive and well
In Baker Valley, you too can follow the flow of the river and discover hidden gems along the way.
From small communities to amazing wildlife viewing to historic sites (including remnants of the Oregon Trail), the valley is sure to delight and surprise.
THINGS TO KNOW
ACCESS
Access throughout the Baker Valley on US-30 and OR-86 remains open throughout the year, except during the biggest winter storms.
WEATHER & SEASONS
Enjoy the changing scenery as crops sprout in the spring, grow through the summer, and get harvested in fall. Most small museums and heritage sites are open Memorial Day to Labor Day.
CALL AHEAD
Some attractions are either run by volunteers or may not be accessible depending on weather or snow conditions. We recommend you call ahead to any museums or sites.
