Dyer State Wayside

Dyer State Wayside is a small roadside park set within a narrow canyon along a branch of Thirty Mile Creek. The space features grassy grounds, locust trees, and basic facilities positioned to serve passersby.

J.W. Dyer donated this land to Oregon State in 1931 to create a rest stop along Route 19. Later, local volunteers undertook major renovations in 1997 to improve the facilities.

The Dyer Partners volunteer group transformed this park in 1997 through extensive renovations, demonstrating local community dedication to public spaces.

This spot sits about 10 miles south of Condon along Route 19 and offers picnic tables, restrooms, and parking. It works well as a brief stop during road trips.

At just 0,6 acres, this park ranks among Oregon's six smallest state parks. Its narrow canyon setting gives it character despite its tiny footprint.
