The Rough Guide to Oregon and Washingtonis the definitive guide to these scenic Pacific Northwest states. The twenty-four colour pages introduce the region, providing suggestions on what to see and do and when to go, as well as featuring snapshots of over twenty of the area's highlights. Beginning with easy-going Portland and finishing with geologically diverse eastern Washington, you'll find more extensive and detailed coverage than in any other guide. The two colour sections - Beervana and scenic hikes - beautifully introduce two of the major passions in the two states- beer and hiking. Complete with practical information on getting to and around the two states, you'll find informed descriptions and accurate listing of the best bars and accommodation. The guide also takes a detailed look at the region's history, flora and fauna, surveys the best films and books on Oregon and Washington, and includes new maps and plans for every area. The Rough Guide to Oregon and Washingtonis like having a local friend plan your trip!
