Known as “Track Town USA,” “The Emerald Valley,” or “Nike Town,” Eugene is the second-largest city in Oregon. Home to the Summer Olympic Trials and many other exciting outdoor events, this area is a hidden gem.
In this travel guide, you can learn everything you need to know for an exciting and wonderful vacation to this centrally located destination.
