The terrain around Wallowa is an open, farmed valley at the foot of the Wallowa Mountains, and it has shaped both the town’s compact form and its agricultural economy. The Wallowa River runs through this northeastern Oregon community before continuing toward the Grande Ronde River, while the higher country to the south leads toward Wallowa Lake and the Eagle Cap Wilderness. The valley is part of the ancestral homeland of the Nimiipuu, or Nez Perce; the forced removal of Wallowa bands in 1877 remains central to its history. Today, Wallowa serves ranching country and travellers moving through Wallowa County. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Wallowa Valley.
