Exciting news!
A new set of birding trails has been added to the Oregon Birding Trail system. Official printed trail guides are due in August 2009. But there is a web site with a preliminary pdf brochure available right now.
Willamette Valley Birding Trail
A birding trail is a self-guided driving birding loop. From Clatskanie in the north along the Columbia River, to Cottage Grove in the southern end of the Willamette Valley, there are 12 birding trail loops. Each loop has numerous birding site stops and some of the highlight birds are listed.
Word has it that this birding trail will also include some bicycle birding loops!
The Willamette Valley Birding trail joins the Cascades Birding Trail, the Coast Birding Trail, the Klamath Birding Trail, and the Basin and Range Birding Trail. To access all the trail brochures online, please visit the Oregon Birding Trails page.
