What could possibly be better than getting out into Oregon’s wilderness and going for a hike? How about going for a hike with goats? At this pretty Oregon ranch, you can do exactly that! Take a look:
Willow-Witt Ranch is pure paradise. Tucked into a valley in the Cascade Mountains, this 445-acre ranch is surrounded by beauty, and you can visit the farm for a day or an overnight stay.
The address of the ranch is 658 Shale City Rd., Ashland, OR 97520.
This ranch is 100 percent off the grid, using solar and micro-hydro power, and its owners are dedicated to sustainable farming practices and forest and wetland management . It's home to ducks, chickens, and goats, and other farm animals just waiting to say hello.
Bring your hiking boots with you - there are miles and miles of trails on the property, and even more nearby. Enjoy an easy stroll, or put in a little more effort for some beautiful views like this.
Immerse yourself in the beauty of this ranch with an overnight stay. Willow-Witt Ranch has four cozy wall tents tucked into the trees that sleep two to four people comfortably. A cookhouse offers everything you need to prepare meals, and the bath house has nice, warm showers.
Willow-Witt Ranch is open year-round! Visit from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. to take a self-guided tour of the farm, or call the ranch in advance at 541-890-1998 to arrange a guided tour, hike, or overnight stay.
