Welcome to the Heart of the McKenzie!
Blue River Park
For nearly 70 years, Blue River Park has been a treasured hub for the local community, and a draw for the many visitors who come to experience the beauty and nature of the McKenzie valley year after year.
But in September 2020 that all changed dramatically, as a devastating fire destroyed Blue River, burning the majority of the buildings in the town to the ground and damaging the park’s trees to the point where most could not be saved. Efforts to restore the park to its former glory are well underway so check back regularly to keep abreast of restoration efforts.
