Eugene's Laurel Hill Park Trail is a favorite of area runners and walkers. Located behind the Laurelwood Golf Course at the top of Agate Street is Laurel Park where this network of single-track recreation trails begins. The terrain is somewhat challenging in parts, but that intensity of the workout will prove highly beneficial for those running the trail.
When you dig deep, you never know what you'll find. Getting below the surface of history and cultural traditions will allow you to gain a deeper understanding, and there's no better place to do that in Eugene than at the University of Oregon Museum of Natural and Cultural History. Here, the past is present in so many colorful and multidimensional ways. You'll be able to experience an amazing 15,000 years of Oregon's cultural history as well as an equally stunning 200 million years of geology. Get ready, because the trip is a dramatic one, with adventure at nearly every turn.
Swing into some unforgettable fun when you spend an afternoon at the Camp Putt Adventure Park. This is the Northwest's premier miniature golf attraction. Your shots will be quite a fun challenge to make as waterfalls, creeks and lush landscaping add to the difficulty of the course. Special rates are available for parties and corporate get-togethers.
Your need for good exercise is important, but then again, it is equally vital for your pet. Head to the Candlelight Park Off-Leash where you both can get in some enjoyable outdoor exercise. This park is specifically designated as an off-leash area, so your dog can enjoy the freedom and fun of running free without leaving the view of your watchful eye. The park is conveniently located off of Royal Avenue at Candlelight.
