Cowboys
Rounding up the Herd
Cattle ranching is still a way of life in Oregon, especially as you move to the wide open spaces east of the Cascade Mountains. Many visitors come to Oregon to get a taste of cowboy life on a guest ranch. Here you can help real wranglers round up cattle, go horseback riding, take covered wagon rides and feast at cowboy cookouts. This is your chance to experience the Wild West up-close and personal. To see how the life of the cowboy has changed over time, visit the Cowboys Then & Now Museum in Union.
