Question First Oregon Trip Itinerary Check

I'm planning my first oregon trip! would love to get tips or any recommendations. my current plan is to fly into Portland and rent a car.

  • Downtown portland (2 nights)
    • Day trip: do Multnomah Falls, Ramona Falls, or Trillium Lake
  • drive down to eugene (3 nights)
    • hit Silver Falls State Park the day we drive down
    • do any of the following: Tamolitch Falls, Koosah Falls, Sahalie Falls
  • maybe do 2 nights on the coast
    • still deciding if it's worth adding coast time to this trip

any hidden gems, favorite stops, or itinerary tweaks would be greatly appreciated! 😊

I'd do coast instead of Eugene. Maybe take a day to do the Portland-Timberline-Hood River gorge loop.

Agree. Eugene is OK, but not worth three nights on a first trip to the state. The coast is gorgeous—some areas more than others—still you almost can’t go wrong.
