Outdoor fun

Central Oregon is beautiful year round - get outside!
Beautiful, moderate hike along the river. We recommend picking up the trailhead at Farewell Bend Park and walking the full loop along the river (just under 3 miles round trip).

Short 30-minute drive outside Bend to this breathtaking waterfall. Last 2 miles of the drive are rocky, so be sure your car can handle it before heading out to the falls. There's a moderate, short hike up the top of the falls or a 6.5 Tumalo Falls trail for the more adventurous.

A beautiful spot no matter the time of year. Take a short hike from the trailhead in the summer months (Warning: road to trailhead is very rough - 4-wheel drive vehicles recommended) or snowshoe from Bachelor Village in the winter months!

Beautiful, moderate hike (3.6 miles out and back). Wear good boots, bring water and dress in layers as tree cover can make things chilly. Trail is very popular in the summer months, but in early spring/late fall you could have the place to yourself. Forested areas may be muddy.

Casual local spot in downtown Bend. If you're into deviled eggs, ask about their daily combo. Great burgers, onion rings and drinks.

Best donuts in Bend! Lots of variety - we recommend their apple fritters, if that's your thing. On Mondays they do "pies" - basically glazed donuts filled with pie filling (quite good!). Cash only - so hit the ATM before you go to Richard's.

Great upscale Italian restaurant on the West side. Recommend reservations to ensure a table, but a seat at the bar is also nice.
