Shakespeare Under the Stars, Stunning Overlooks: Oregon Adventure Sets the Stage

Oregon Tours & Vacations with Leaders in Adventure Travel


Oregon Tours and Austin-Lehman Oregon Vacations at Crater Lake National ParkThere's a legend in Oregon that says when the first Crater Lake visitors with color cameras took their photos to be developed, Kodak refunded their money, assuming the bright blue in the pictures was unnatural and must have been a mistake in the printing process. Little did Kodak know, the impossibly blue hue of Oregon's Crater Lake was, in fact, real.

Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the U.S., is only one of countless natural wonders in Oregon's Crater Lake National Park. On your Oregon adventure, by day raft the world-famous Rogue River, bike along the rim of an extinct volcano and hike the Pacific Coast trail, enveloped in the rich bouquet of pine forests. By night, indulge in fresh, locally grown berries, cheeses and wines and enjoy the rare spectacle of classic Shakespearean theater under the stars.

Oregon vacations that relax your mind, energize your body, and ignite the adventurer within as we explore Oregon's Crater Lake National Park: a land of stunning and seemingly impossible beauty.

What Makes Oregon Vacations Special?

A volcano, an impossibly blue lake, a rushing river and a Shakespeare Festival set the stage for adventure in Crater Lake National Park, Oregon. Hike park trails to spectacular overlooks. Bike along a crater rim and down a “highway of waterfalls.” Raft the wild class II-IV Rogue River. Feast on locally grown berries, cheeses and wines and enjoy an open-air performance at the Ashland Shakespeare Festival – truly a mid-summer night’s dream!

These Oregon tours begin from Medford, Oregon.  Enjoy a morning bike ride through Douglas fir and sugar pine forests to Crater Lake National Park.  Crater Lake, a mesmerizing deep blue, is America’s deepest lake; it was formed when 12,000-foot Mount Mazama collapsed nearly six centuries ago.   Set off for a rigorous hike along Mount Scott Trail to the 8,929-foot summit of Mount Scott, the highest point in Crater Lake National Park.  From the top, look out over the entire lake as well as also Mount Thielson, Mount Shasta and Mount McLoughlin. Opt for a bike ride around the crater rim.  Bike the Rogue-Umpqua Scenic Byway and hike a trail along the Upper Rogue RiverWhitewater rafting on Rogue River advances from mellow riffles of class I introductory rapids to exciting class IV whitewater.  Arrive in the hip town of Ashland, Oregon  where wine tasting and hors d’oeuvre reception await.  Enjoy spa treatment, shuttle downtown for an evening in Ashland, or simply relax.  Ashland’s Shakespearean Festival is a must!
