ACTIVITIES AROUND LAUGHING ALPACA
EXPLORE MAJESTIC SOUTHERN OREGON
Cave Junction is a small town and the Gateway to the Oregon Caves National Monument. It's the commercial, service, and cultural center for a rural community of small farms, woodlots, craftspeople, and families. The valley is in the basin of the Illinois River Valley and its tributaries - nestled in the mountains known as the Siskiyou in the Klamath Range at an elevation of about 1329 ft.
​
The Illinois Valley is frequently referred to as the "banana belt" of Oregon and is a favorite year-round vacation destination. Here you can enjoy culture, art, the spectacular beauty of the rivers, streams, and public forest lands available for hiking, backpacking, fishing, & hunting. This picturesque valley lies halfway between Grants Pass and Crescent City, making it only a short drive to the famous Rogue River, Oregon Coast, the Redwoods, Oregon Caves N.P., and so much more!
