The tallest town in Oregon in Lakeview

Lakeview is the county seat of Lake County and calls itself the tallest town in Oregon. Travel Oregon uses the same words, calling it "the state's tallest town (4,798 feet)."

Sources differ on the number

  • Travel Oregon: 4,798 feet.
  • Wikipedia: 4,757 feet in the infobox, with about 4,800 feet in the text.
  • The Oregon Encyclopedia, as quoted in a search summary: 4,804 feet.

All say roughly 4,800 feet. The exact figure depends on where in town it is measured, so we give "about 4,800 feet."

Where it sits

Lakeview is in the Goose Lake Valley at the foot of the Warner Mountains. By Wikipedia's figures it is 96 miles east of Klamath Falls, 54 miles north of Alturas, California, and 175 miles southeast of Bend.
