Tualatin River

The Tualatin River is a 83-mile-long waterway in Oregon that flows through hills, farmlands, and urban areas before joining the Willamette River. It originates in the Coast Range and provides important habitat for fish like salmon and steelhead. The river supports local agriculture, recreation, and communities by influencing the region's ecology and economy. Conservation efforts help protect water quality and natural habitats amid urban development and agriculture. Overall, the Tualatin River plays a vital role in the environmental health and sustainability of western Oregon.
