Rolling down National Scenic Highway 101 along the foothills and beaches of the Pacific Northwest, Escape Adventures’ 6-day Oregon road cycling tour pulls out all the stops to truly showcase the beautifully diverse Oregonian coastline, one of the state’s Seven Wonders. Starting from the Columbia River at the state’s northwest edge, guests wend their way along what locals call the People’s Coast, Oregon’s publicly owned coastline—360-miles from end to end—enjoying magnificent sea stacks, sandstone cliffs, vibrant inlets, and rich ocean breezes. Blissfully detached from noise and commercialism, Coastal Oregon lends itself to unparalleled road biking. Several small group tours are available in August and September starting at $1,495 per person double. Custom and private tours are also available.
