City of Heppner:

The City of Heppner, "Gateway to the Blues", lies in North East Oregon, USA, about 50 miles south of the Columbia River. Heppner offers small town, rural living, near the base of the Blue Mountains. Having low crime, affordable housing, a full service downtown, medical facilities, and superior schools, Heppner is a great place to raise a family. The topography consists of rolling hills with mountains further to the East. The population is 1410 with most of the residents employed in agriculture, timber, government, and manufacturing.

Four streams, Balm Fork, Hinton Creek, Willow Creek, and Shobe Creek meet at Heppner. A dam constructed across Willow Creek and Balm Fork created a small lake which contains trout, bass, crappie and catfish. Willow Creek itself harbors quite a few 14 to 20 inch trout. The creek in town is unofficially reserved for fishing by kids under 12, and it is quite common to see a young person walking through town with a string of fish. Recreational fishing is also popular at nearby Penland Lake, Cutsforth Park, Anson Wright Park, and at numerous private ponds. Further North, the Columbia River contains many game fish including salmon, steelhead, sturgeon, walleye and others.
Heppner is a popular destination for sport hunting also. Elk, deer and bear make up most of the big game animals for local hunters. Pheasant, chukar, hungarian partridge, dove, turkey, and quail are favorite area game birds.

Snowmobiling and cross country skiing are a couple of favorite wintertime activities for locals. Numerous trails in the Umatilla National Forest provide plenty of opportunities for adventure and scenic vistas.

Heppner is the largest of three small communities that lie in Oregon’s Willow Creek Valley. The valley is sparsely populated with scattered farms outside the towns. Highway 74, The Blue Mountain Scenic Byway, winds along the valley from the freeway to the north through Ione, Lexington, and Heppner. The valley is serene and very beautiful with pastoral views, hills, and canyons. From Heppner, the Byway leads into the Blue Mountains to the town of Ukiah and on to La Grande.

Incorporated in 1887, Heppner is the county seat of Morrow County and is located on Highways 207 and 74, just 47 miles from Hermiston, 60 miles from Pendleton and 80 miles from the Tri-Cities. At an elevation of about 1800 feet, Heppner provides a milder climate and quick access to the forest and lakes only a short distance away
