Oregon is located on the northwestern coast of the United States. The state is heavily forested, with mountains, valleys, and a rocky coastline. Parks, waterfalls, and hiking trails provide excellent opportunities for outdoor recreation.

Portland is known as an environmentally friendly city and is famous for its many microbreweries and coffee shops. It is an ideal city for biking, with many bicycle commuters, bicycle paths, and bicycling events.
