Few other states in the US offer such incredibly diverse landscapes as Oregon. In the West almost 400 miles of rugged coastline run along the Pacific Ocean, dotted with charming fishing villages, historic lighthouses and dramatic scenery. Further inland, rivers run through rich valleys, lush green pastures and vineyards. Romantic towns welcome visitors with quaint antique shops, art galleries and covered bridges.
The undiscovered wonder of the USA. This series will showcase the diversity of culture and attractions for the international tourist. Aspects of this hugely diverse area of the USA which the programmes in the series will seek to explore include food and wine ; the ‘real’ West ; coastal and marine life and eco tourism.

Premieres Saturday 12th September, 2009 @ 2100 CEST & 1900 BST
Join host Alistair Divall for this hour-long special look at one of the most undiscovered States of the USA...Oregon. Taking in the old and the new; the sights and the sounds; the thrills, the chills and the tastes. Alistair explores all aspects of The Beaver State from its biggest city, Portland, to its stunning landscapes and glorious vineyards. There’s even a chance to play cowboy. And we get to see Oregon in its year round glory, shimmering in sunshine, and covered in snow. This is a great introduction to one of America’s most beautiful and lesser-known states.
