A microcosm of Northern California, Oroville's opportunities for recreation lie in four distinct geographic environments: the great Central Valley, the rising foothills of the Plumas National Forest, the expansive Lake Oroville and the mighty Feather River.
Outdoor enthusiastscherish Oroville for its world-class fishing, hiking, biking, camping and horseback riding. Numerous museums and historic homes entertain and inform both young and old, while parks, golf courses, house boating and water skiing are summer time favorites. Throughout the year, two casinos, and two performance theatres offer first-rate entertainment. Hunting for treasures in Historic Downtown Oroville's many antique and collectibles shops is also a unique Oroville experience.
