1. Crater Lake
What remains after the collapse of a massive volcano is one of Oregon’s most recognizable features. Crater Lake and the surrounding park are continually open to the public year round, though winter weather tends to shut down some access roads. The best time of year to have full access to the area is the summer.
Winter Means Business: Snowfall at Crater Lake averages 44 feet per year, according to the National Park Service.
These natural landmarks work equally well as the main attractions or as small stops on your next vacation. And the beauty of the U.S. national park system is these places will always be available for you to enjoy.
