Tillamook Forest Center

Using drama and full-sensory fun to engage visitors

From 1933 to 1951 a series of devastating fires burned almost 500 square miles of Tillamook Forest. This land eventually became the Tillamook State Forest, and has been restored to become one of America's best examples of a sustainably managed forest.

AldrichPears Associates worked closely with its partners and the Oregon Department of Forestry to create a plan for developing a seamless indoor-outdoor experience that would offer visitors the insights they would need to understand the growth and management of the trees around them.

The Center was awarded an Oregon Tourism Achievement Award in 2007.

Location: Tillamook State Forest, Oregon
