Panorama Point In Oregon Leads To Panoramic Mountain Views

Oregon isn’t lacking when it comes to incredible scenic overlooks and jaw-dropping vistas. But there’s a place in the southeastern part of the state that doesn’t get as much attention as its east side brethren, and that’s Panorama Point. Located in the gorgeous Jacksonville Woodlands, Panorama Point offers sweeping panoramic views of the Siskyou Mountains, historic downtown Jacksonville, and the Southern Oregon Cascades, including the rim of Crater Lake and Mount McLoughlin. This accessible trek packs quite the panoramic punch, and is a hiking bucket-list must for all Oregonians!

This is the scene that awaits you at the end of the Britt Canyon to Oregon Trail and Panorama Point. But we’ll get to that in a bit…

With this trail, the journey is just as gorgeous as the destination. Known to locals simply as the “Britt Trails,” the Jacksonville Woodlands features 14 miles of interpretive trails open to both hikers and mountain bikers. But the Britt Canyon to Oregon Trail and Panorama Point is easily the most accessible and popular hike.
