Driving across Oregon typically takes about 7-9 hours, depending on your route and stops.

Estimated Duration: 9 hours

Oregon spans approximately 360 miles east to west on Interstate 84 and I-5. The duration varies based on traffic, weather, and breaks. Scenic routes like Highway 101 along the coast may take longer but offer breathtaking views. Plan for fuel stops and consider Portland or Eugene traffic if taking I-5. Average speeds of 60-65 mph make the trip manageable in a day, but splitting the drive over two days allows for exploration of Oregon's natural wonders like Crater Lake or the Columbia River Gorge.
