Downtown Eugene
Downtown Eugene has many iconic attractions that draw visitors to the city's center. Kesey Square, named after the famous author, is a dining hub with food trucks and destination eateries from Sizzle Pie to Voodoo Doughnuts. The Hult Center is Eugene's performing arts mainstay and the Park Blocks host the colorful Saturday Market and Lane County Farmers Markets. And once you are downtown, you'll discover an array of fantastic boutique shops, art galleries and great restaurants. Find great downtown happy hours for discounts at local businesses.
Downtown Walking Tours
One of the best ways to explore Eugene's downtown is by walking tour. You can do a self-guided tour of historical buildings or the international collection of outdoor murals, or you can enjoy a guided tour by America's Hub World Tours. They offer a fantastic "foodie" tour and a city tour which also includes adjacent neighborhoods.

Getting Around Downtown
The Amtrak depot and the LTD public bus system's main transfer station are in downtown Eugene. There are also city parking garages which offer free parking on Saturdays and Sundays baring special events. Plenty of metered parking spots and pay lots also surround downtown.
Once you are here, getting around is easy with PeaceHealth Rides which is a bicycle ride share program. Downtown Eugene also has Uber and Lyft operating.
Please note: In downtown Eugene, bicycles and skateboards are not allowed on sidewalks within the "walk zone". Please walk your wheels when using pedestrian space. Also, if you are walking your dog downtown, your dog is required to be licensed within the downtown core.
