Second time doing this ride but this one was a bit more of a trek. Reviewed last year as well.

The Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway officially starts at Champoeg State Park outside of Newberg but I always begin at my house in Beaverton.

Day 1: Elmonica/SW 170th, Beaverton to Champoeg State Park, Newberg - 34.33 miles
The ride from my house to the official start of the WVSB is a nice ride that takes you through Beaverton and out on busy Highway 99. A few hills along Murrary Blvd are the biggest obstacle of the day. The Safeway in Newberg is the last store you'll see until Salem, about 40 miles into day 2. Champoeg State Park has a hiker/biker camp for $5/per person/per night fee. Away from the main campground, the hiker/biker sites include two covered areas with 4 lockers. The lockers have outlets in them with USB ports. Locks aren't provided but I never lock them. Other outlets also available. Bike rack and bike fixing station available. Fire rings and picnic tables. Firewood for sale. The main campground, which you have access to, has flush toilets and free hot showers. The bike path in the park will take you along the Willamette River through beautiful old growth to Butteville, home of the oldest operating store in Oregon. Open seasonably.

Day 2: Champoeg State Park, Newberk to Pioneer Park, Independence - 69.88 miles
The first 40 miles of this day takes you through the remote countryside and away from civilization. You'll see no stores until you hit the outskirts of Salem. Be careful early here as you'll cross several busy highways without traffic lights. In Salem, you'll pass through State Capital State Park. Stop and take a look at the Oregon State Capital Building off to your left as your pass the Walk of Flags. The Hub Bicycle Shop and Santiam Bicycle are less than a mile off of your route. From Salem you'll head back into the country and make the final push towards Independence. At the Willamette River Bridge, ignore the WVSB sign and head over the bridge, turn right at the 'T' intersection to Pioneer Park on the shores of the Willamette River. This is a hiker/biker site as well. The park will be the water fountain on your right about a mile into town. $10/night per site. Bike fixing station available. Flush toilets 7am-9pm and vault toilets available after hours. Cold shower for free next to the host RV. If you ask the host nicely, they'll let you use the outlet next to the RV. No others available. Community fire pit. No firewood for sale. Picnic tables. A short 3 mile ride will take you into Monmouth, a little bigger town home of Western Oregon University. Warning: The Willamette River often floods here and the park may be closed during the off season from November to March. Be sure to check the water level here. Willamette Mission State Park has camping and is located several miles south of this area. I've never stayed though so I cannot say how the facilities are.

Day 3: Pioneer Park, Independence to Brownsville City Park, Brownsville - 89.99 miles
After backtracking a mile, head under the overpass and back out into the middle of nowhere. The ride will take you along a national wildlife refuge and, 20 miles in, to the town of Jefferson. There's a store here next to the Willamette River. After crossing the river you'll have your first steep climb. A one mile climb up Scravel Hill Road ending in a spectacular view of the valley below. Be sure to check out the cemetery at the summit. After making the downhill run, you'll come into Albany and ride along a busy corridor full of your every day big town stores. At the intersection with the main highway (Highway 34), a 3 mile detour will take you into Corvallis, home of Oregon State University, Two Towns Ciderhouse and Nectar Creek, a meadery. From here the route takes you back into the middle of nowhere as your wind your way through remote countryside. I suggest getting food in Albany as Brownsville has little to offer. In Brownsville, take a right at the city park sign, up the hill and down the hill into the park. I hear it's $15/night per person but I've never paid. No one has ever asked me to pay when I've been there so I haven't bothered. The city park is a hiker/biker camp. Flush toilets available. No showers. Picnic tables. No fire rings. No firewood for sale. Outlets on the outside of the restroom and inside as well. Stores and restaurants available a mile across the river into town. Very limited selection.

Day 4: Brownsville City Park, Brownsville to Armitage County Park, Eugene - 39.67 miles
After leaving Brownsville, you'll head back into the country side and face the toughest climb of the entire trip up Gap Road. This stretch of the ride is the most remote you'll see. After reaching Coburg, a right on Willamette Drive will take you to Armitage County Park. Very limited hiker/biker sites available. $20/night per site. Free hot showers. Flush toilets. Fire rings and picnic tables (except for site #5). Firewood for sale. Avoid the guy host at the entrance, he's always pissed off at the world and will make your trip miserable. Go find the sweet old lady host next to the hiker/biker sites in the back of the park. Outlets available in the bathrooms/showers. A short 5 mile trip past here on Coburg Road, aka Willamette Blvd, will take you into Eugene. Home of the University of Overrated (Oregon) and any services you'll need.

Amtrak available in: Portland, Salem, Albany, Eugene

Feel free to ask any questions etc! Wrote this up in a hurry.
