The Row River Trail was immortalized in the movie, “Stand By Me”, as the 14-mile, paved National Trail follows the route of the abandoned Oregon Pacific & Eastern Railroad line. Enjoy scenic views of the Row River or stop by Dorena Lake. Other notable landmarks include any of the three covered bridges, including the Mosby Creek Covered Bridge, and the nearby historic Bohemia Mining Area, which offers a peak into the past of late 1800s gold mines.
