Welcome to the Maupin Area Chamber of Commerce!

The Maupin area offers a refreshing retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. A small town pace in an area filled with unspoiled desert beauty will set your visit in the right frame of mind. Recognized for superb white water excitement and world-class wild trout and steelhead fishing, Maupin is your headquarters for outdoor recreation. 

You will find many trout fishermen have found the secret in April.  Then whitewater fills the middle of the summer, and steelhead fishermen get the river to themselves until the middle of November.  This leaves a couple of the areas best secrets, early spring and late fall. 

With over 300 days of sunshine a year there is plenty of nice weather for any visit to the area.  Visit the Recreation & Tourism page to find some of the outdoor opportunities in the area.  Come find out why people are moving to the area, and loving it.

Maupin has such consistently good weather that it doesn’t even have a weather station. The closest weather station is 45 miles North in The Dalles, but that station is included just to give you an approximation of how nice it is in Maupin today. Since The Dalles is in the Columbia River Gorge they get way more rain and wind than Maupin.  So use this as a comparison, and know it is much nicer in Maupin.
