Nudity in Oregon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

According to The Oregonian, "Oregon state law is actually pretty lenient on nudity."[1] There are laws about behavior while nude.[2] The Portland World Naked Bike Ride is the world's largest iteration of the World Naked Bike Ride.

Sites allowing nude recreation include: Collins Beach on Sauvie Island, Mountaindale Sun Resort, Rooster Rock State Park,[3] and Squaw Mountain Ranch.[4] Clothing is optional at Breitenbush Hot Springs Retreat & Conference Center.[5]

In 2010, Ashland's city council banned public nudity.[6]
