English: The Oregon Trail (c.1840s–1869) — a 2,200-mile (3,500 km) historic east-west emigrant trail and large wheeled wagon route across the Northwestern United States.

It connected the Missouri River to valleys in Oregon and the Oregon Territory. The eastern half of the trail crossed the future states of Kansas, Nebraska, and Wyoming. The western half crossed the future states of Idaho and Oregon.
The eastern trail was also used by travelers on the California Trail (from 1843), Bozeman Trail (from 1863), and Mormon Trail (from 1847) before turning off to their separate destinations.
