One of the most beautiful rivers in the Pacific Northwest — emerald green, spring-fed, and remarkably stable from volcanic geology. The North Umpqua flows 110 miles through Umpqua National Forest with the famous 79-mile North Umpqua Trail running beside it. World-renowned summer steelhead and Chinook fishery. The Narrows deliver Class III–IV whitewater through a volcanic gorge.
