OR-138 · Southern Oregon · Umpqua

North Umpqua Highway

For a full day of rivers, forest and waterfall country

  • 100 mi catalog itinerary
  • Southern Oregon · Umpqua

This is the reviewed 100-mile OR-138 itinerary, not the separate longer catalog route to Crater Lake. It does not include a Crater Lake rim drive.

Heading east from Roseburg, OR-138 reaches the North Umpqua River near Glide and continues into the forested Cascades. River bends, changing elevation and access to waterfall country make it the longest, most day-trip-oriented choice on this list.
