Pacific N.W. - Oregon
Grants Pass
| Recenter Map To This Location |
Grants Pass was once a stopping point on the Oregon-California Stagecoach Line. It got its name in 1863 when settlers building the main road through town got news that Ulysses S. Grant had captured Vicksburg. The town is now a central point for many downriver (the Rogue) rafting trips and a good place to inquire about them. Some 40 miles of the Rogue River from Grants Pass to Gold Beach at the Pacific Ocean are protected within the Siskiyou National Forest, where the only access is by foot or raft. For more information about supervised and unsupervised opportunities to explore this gorgeous stretch of river, call the Siskiyou National Forest Service at 541-471-6500. River rafting trips generally run from May through October.
