It was used by many settlers as they moved west.
The first to lead a wagon train into Oregon were Marcus Whitman, his wife Narcissa, and about 20 others. There they set up the Whitman Mission, an area that became a stopping point for many wagon trains on their way to Oregon City.
Beacuse it went to Oregon. But many trails branched off to other places.
Over 500,000 people traveled on the Oregon Trail.
The Oregon Territory became part of the United States in the 1840's just before the Civil War. The discovery of the Oregon Trail led to many wagon trains and settlers going to Oregon Territory.
It took 22 days to cross the river on the Oregon trail.
1200 people travelled the Oregon trail

The trail from Nauvoo, Illinios to Salt Lake City, Utah was approximately 1300 miles. The Oregon Trail was around 2100 miles.
The Oregon Trail Pioneers were required to have a wagon and certain animals to pull it and a set amount of previsions to make the trip. No one went across the trail alone because of Indians and wild country. The reason so many walked is because the wagon was designed to haul large load. They were rickety without shocks and after a day or two of vibration to a person's body, it felt better to walk. Wagons went very slow with large heavy loads on the trail. Many times a wagon would be driven 5-15 miles in a day. From sun up to sun down. A healthy person was better equipped for such a daily walk, rather then a bumpy ride.
