Malheur County

Be sure to pack extra water, fuel, and a spare tire because you are heading to the exhilarating Owyhee Canyonlands! One of the largest undeveloped regions in the lower 48 states, the Owyhee country—often dubbed "Oregon's Grand Canyon"—is truly a place to get away from it all. You'll see wildlife, rocky spires, deep pools, and steep canyons. Try the short Timber Gulch hike through sheer cliffs or get splashed on a whitewater adventure on the Owyhee Wild and Scenic River.
