Dayton

Dayton is a city that lies not far from the bustling Portland, and it is home to a surprisingly green landscape, defined by lush trees and rolling vineyards. It is a place that many people come to when they are looking to reconnect with nature, away from the business of the nearby cities, and it is especially popular in the summertime, when the hills take on a life of their own and glow green in the sunlight. Head to the most famous of the wineries, the Domaine Serene Winery, where you can wind your way through the grapevines and catch the sweet smell of grapes in the summer air. The Our Lady of Guadalupe Trappist Abbey is a picturesque and historically rich setting, where you can go on light hikes through the grounds, and the Vista Hills Vineyard provides some of the best views.
