Route 30 near Rowena is notable for the Rowena Loops.〔(Historic photo of the Rowena loops on U.S. 30 from Salem Public Library )〕 According to ''Oregon Geographic Names'', the exact origin of the name "Rowena" is disputed. Two sources say Rowena was named for H.S. Rowe, a railroad company official, in the early 1880s. Another source says it was named for a girl, Rowena, who had been living in the area at the time the community was founded. It is also possible that the name comes indirectly from Rowena, Ivanhoe's lover in the novel of the same name by Sir Walter Scott. There was once a ferry operating between Rowena and Lyle, Washington across the Columbia.〔(The Song of the Rivers )〕 The Nature Conservancy has a nature reserve on the plateau near Rowena, The Tom McCall Preserve known for its spring wildflowers.
