Eugene Attractions – Top 6 Things to Do in Eugene

By Quick Stop Cannabis
Eugene attractions

We love living and working in Oregon—a state with generally forward-thinking and sensible cannabis laws—and we really love living in Eugene, a beautiful and historic college town with a ton to see and do. Whether you live here as a full-time resident or student or if you’re just passing through on your way to another beautiful Oregon destination, we’ve collected a few of our favorite things, activities, and events here in Eugene for you to check out.

The Saturday Market

While every town has its version of a craft and farmers’ market, we think Eugene’s Saturday Market is tops. With hundreds of artisans, chefs, performers, and food vendors, it’s a difficult place to spend less than a few hours at. Do be aware—or is that doobie aware?—that neither dogs, nor smoking—nor, one supposes, smoking dogs—are permitted at the market. And if all the activities here get you fired up to cook, the Lane County Farmers’ Market is located just across the street.

Shelton McMurphey Johnson House

A truly fascinating glimpse into the region’s Victorian past, this fabulous “castle on the hill” is a nationally recognized landmark and museum. Learn about Eugene’s cultural, architectural and natural history, or enjoy one of the House’s formal teas for a real taste of life here over a century ago.

Hendricks Park

Eugene’s oldest park, Hendricks is a gorgeous 80-acre preserve and a tranquil and relaxing way to enjoy nature without stepping foot outside the city limits. You can wander among 200-year-old Douglas firs, take in over 6,000 varieties of rhododendrons in the world-renowned garden, or just relax, breathe deeply, and take it all in…

Hult Center for the Performing Arts

Built by the citizens of Eugene in 1982, the Hult Center features some crazily diverse programming in multiple disciplines. On any given night you can find World Music, plays, comedy—including an August performance by Trevor Noah—opera, kids events…. The list goes on and on. And the space itself is every bit as visually and sonically compelling as the programs. Don’t be put off by the threat of a “highbrow” night out: The Hult center really is for everyone.

Cascades Raptor Center

Whether you’re a birdwatcher or not, we think you’ll be dazzled by the residents of this sprawling outdoor aviary. You’ll meet nearly 50 birds of prey, all rescued from life-threatening injuries in the wild, and it’s impossible not to be touched by these majestic and impressive creatures. Please note that dogs—except for service animals—are not allowed here and that some of the hillside trails leading to avian enclosures are steep.

We hope you’ll love taking advantage of these “very Eugene” activities as much as we do! If you have a favorite local activity you don’t see listed here, drop us a line and let us know! We’d love to hear from you.

Oregon’s Vinyards

Take advantage of Willamette Valley’s beautiful wine country, and visit one of many nearby vinyards 10 of the best Winery’s. Tasting rooms throughout Oregon are open for indoor and outdoor tasting, indoor shopping and curbside pickup. Oregon’s wine industry has adopted a detailed set of guidelines to ensure tasting room visitors and winery staff have a safe and enjoyable experience. In light of the frequently changing situation it is recommended you call ahead or make appointments where possible. We look forward to raising a glass again with you soon.
