Track Town vibes with craft beer and river runs
Eugene is a laid-back college town where the University of Oregon energy meets Oregon's craft beer and wine culture. The Willamette River runs through town, wineries dot the surrounding hills, and the food scene punches above its weight. It is the kind of bachelor trip where nobody is in a hurry but nobody is bored.
