Interested in the Oregon Trail?

Give your family and friends interactive, hands on experience at the End of the Oregon Trail Visitor Center. Your one hour visit to the Oregon Trail Visitor Center and Country Store includes an orientation to the Oregon Trail, displays and artifacts to view and read, along with 19th century hands on activities such as pioneer puzzles, dress up, and laundry. Your interpretive guide in period attire will share stories and information about the Oregon Trail and early life in Oregon City. Enjoy crafts such as butter making, candle dipping, and decorating a quilt square. End your visit with time spent on Abernethy Green playing pioneer games such as “graces” and “gunny sack races”. Enjoy your own sack lunches in our covered picnic shelter or we can arrange to provide box lunches and other add-ons such as a visit with Master Gardeners in our heritage kitchen garden, and special crafts. The visit content is based on the Oregon Department of Education Content Standards.

The cost per group not to exceed 20 people is $90.00. For more information and to schedule a group time, please call Gail at 503-657-9336 ext. 107 or email here. We look forward to seeing you!
