Wallowa Mountains, Mountain range in northeastern Oregon, United States
The Wallowa Mountains stretch across 40 miles of northeastern Oregon, reaching elevations up to 9,838 feet at Sacajawea Peak, the highest point in the range.
The Nez Perce tribe inhabited the Wallowa Valley until the 1870s when European settlers arrived, leading to conflicts that culminated in the Nez Perce War of 1877.
The town of Joseph near the Wallowas maintains art galleries, bronze foundries, and restaurants that reflect the regional heritage of northeastern Oregon.
More than 500 miles of trails traverse the Eagle Cap Wilderness, providing access to alpine lakes, glacial canyons, and mountain summits throughout the range.
The Wallowa Lake Tramway carries visitors 3,700 feet upward to Mount Howard, offering views across three states and access to high-altitude hiking trails.
