Klamath County (IPA: [ˈklæ məθ]) is a county located in the U.S. state of Oregon.
Historically, Klamath County's economy was based on timber and agriculture, and although these natural resource industries now contribute only a small fraction to the region's current economic activity and employment, their legacy lives on in local politics, community identity, and landscape.
A treaty was signed with the Klamaths on October 14, 1864, which led to the establishment of the Klamath Reservation.
