Marion County, Oregon
Marion County is in the heart of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. You can find Salem, the state capital, here. It keeps things interesting with its mix of politics and history. But drive a few miles in any direction and you’re in farm country.
Cherry orchards, vineyards, and hop fields paint the landscape. The county’s western edge climbs into the Cascades. This is where Silver Falls State Park showcases some of Oregon’s most spectacular waterfalls.
Winters bring rain, but also cozy tasting rooms at local wineries. From food trucks to fine dining, Marion County’s culinary scene is on point. It’s a place where urban and rural Oregon come together, creating something uniquely awesome.
