About Albany, Oregon
Albany sits in the heart of Oregon’s Willamette River valley, on the banks of the Willamette and Calapooia rivers.
From river town beginnings and the development first of the railroads and later highways and Interstate 5, Albany’s nickname of “Hub City” is the perfect way to describe how you’ll be at the center of all that Oregon has to offer.
In around an hour you can be in Portland to the north; Pacific Ocean beaches and deep sea fishing to the west; and skiing, camping, fishing, boating, hunting, and more to the east in the Cascades.
