TRAVEL OREGON
A Hiker’s Guide to the Owyhee Canyonlands

This remote southeastern Oregon gem is the ultimate off-the-grid getaway.

Located along the far eastern border of Oregon — about six hours from Portland and 4.5 hours from Bend — the Owyhee Canyonlands unfold over more than 2 million acres. Cut by just three paved roads, it’s considered one of the largest expanses of undeveloped land in the lower 48 states. Named to honor three Hawaiian members of a fur-trapping party who were lost in the region in 1819, the Owyhee River has sculpted the land into stunning canyons amidst colorful remnant volcanic features, rock formations and rolling sagebrush hills.
