Old Wagon Roads Itinerary
Canyonville to Lookingglass
Historic markers and modern makers offer an immersion of the senses.
Start your morning off in Canyonville at Pioneer Park for details about the Applegate Trail, a mid-19th century alternative to westernmost part of the Oregon Trail.
Continue along the historic route to detour for fresh- baked confections at Happy Donut and neighboring Goodog Bakery, which sells treats for both people and pets.
More history awaits at Millsite Park, where interpretive kiosks shed light on the incredible emigrant journey and historic wagon ruts remain less than a quarter mile away.
Over in Winston, stop at Brosi’s Sugartree Farms for a sweet snack at their farmstand before heading over to Wildlife Safari for some family fun. This animal park offers a drive-through experience and is one of the top cheetah breeding research centers on Earth.
The neighboring community of Lookingglass enjoys quiet fame for its country store built and continuously operated since 1852. Celebrate modern makers on Thursdays, from spring to the holidays, at the Lookingglass Grange Farm Market, featuring an array of talented food and craft vendors.
Then steer your convoy south to Historic Downtown Grants Pass the gateway to the Rogue Valley Food Trail.
