About:

Oregon Trail Ruts State Historic Site (OTRSHS) is itself a historical feature. It is one of the most spectacular locations to see evidence of the great westward movement of the 1800’s.

Visitors will be able to get an up close experience of what it may have been like to travel through this historic trail corridor.
