Eugene Things to Do Tips by shellybelly567 Top 5 Page for this destination

Hendricks Park

Hendricks Park is a great place to go running, walking, picknicking or whatever else you might do in a park. My favorite thing to do there, was practice my limited photography skills. I love photographing nature-especially flowers...check out my travelogue for more Hendricks Park photos.

It consists mainly of wooded areas, but it also has a beautiful rhododendron garden.

Willamette Pass Ski Area

Willamette Pass is a great ski area about an hour southeast of Eugene on HWY 58. It's not all that big, but it's cheap (about $25 for a day pass), close to Eugene, and has a SIX PERSON HIGH SPEED LIFT.

Since its not a particularly difficult Ski Area, it's a great place to take kids. There are a lot of easy runs for the kiddies and at the bunny slope, they have this great thing called the Magic Carpet-basically an escalator for skis and snowboards.

Address: HWY 58 Milepost 62

Directions: From I-5 South, take the Pleasant Hill HWY 58 exit, drive until you see the ski area
