The Willamette River is a major tributary of the Columbia River, flowing 187 miles through northwestern Oregon. It forms the picturesque Willamette Valley, home to two-thirds of Oregon's population, including the state capital of Salem and the bustling city of Portland.
Rich in history and natural beauty, the Willamette River has been a vital transportation route for centuries and supports a diverse ecosystem with 60 fish species. With numerous bridges, dams, and ferries along its course, the river continues to play a significant role in the region's economy and recreation.
