Bald Peak (1,629′ elev.) is located where the worlds of high-tech and rural Oregon meet. Restaurants, shops, nightlife, and a fast pace abound in nearby Hillsboro. Farms, wineries, fruit stands, and a chance to appreciate the more subtle and sublime life can be found in Newberg. Take a relaxing, scenic drive through the Chehalem hills from Newberg. Along the way, take a break at Bald Peak State Park.
There’s a nice grassy hillside perfect for a picnic. Afterward, go for a short stroll through a Douglas fir woodland.
