Springfield, Oregon, is home to the Simpsons of TV fame, but the town has a great deal more to offer visitors than just eye-catching Simpsons murals. The town is a gateway to some great outdoor activities – you can go walking, running, hiking, and cycling in Island Park, where several scenic trails can be found, or cast a line to catch a trout for your dinner.
You can try some thrilling river rafting on the Willamette River in summer or make your way to Splash Indoor Water Park all year round to enjoy slides, tubes, and even a wave pool. You can explore the vibrant downtown area on foot to discover many restaurants, galleries, shops and the excellent Friday farmers’ market .
