Watch the kids move through the sandy gulches on a half-day excursion through Oregon’s red rock country. Or hoist a backpack and ramble in the remote side canyons of a wild desert river. The Owyhee Canyonlands offers up some of its most stunning places to those on foot. So lace up, and get ready for adventure.
