Here's some happenings from around the region!
Dreaming of live music and a picnic with friends under a sky full of stars? Get away to pictureseque Jacksonville, surrounded by rolling hills and vineyards near Ashland and Medford. In this small town, many of the 19th-century brick buildings and gracious homes have been preserved, and the downtown district, with its brick facades, feels like the film set of a Western. Each summer it’s home to an outdoor music festival that makes the town come alive with arts and culture.
Crater Lake isn’t the only spectacular water feature in Southern Oregon. The mountains and valleys of the entire volcanic region are dotted with waterfalls that provide a rushing, watery exclamation point to many hikes. Springtime is best to catch high-volume falls bursting with fresh snowmelt, but you’ll enjoy them all year round — expect cooling mists on hot summer days and vibrant views amidst fall foliage.
If you’re looking for winter fun, Southern Oregon has it all — including ice skating, skiing and sledding. Towns in the region go all out for the holidays, too, with a banquet of festivals, parades, artisan fairs and tree lightings. Load the family in the car and choose from these four wintry getaways.
