Bend Travel Tips

Practice enders, pirouettes, and other kayaking moves on the Deschutes River, which flows right through town.
Mountain bikers can hook up with Cog Wild Mountain Bike Tours for shuttles, guided rides, and multi-day programs in the surrounding Deschutes National Forest.
In winter, snag the biodiesel Super Shuttle bus to 3,683-acre Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort. The twice-daily bus costs $7 and leaves from the Bend park-and-ride lot.
After your preferred activity, commiserate with like-minded outdoors enthusiasts at the Deschutes Brewery taproom, one of the best microbreweries in the country. Dark-beer drinkers should go for the Black Butte Porter; those who prefer something lighter can opt for the Mirror Pond Pale Ale.

To understand why a small town on the edge of a vast high desert could attract so many vacationers, just look to the sky. It's blue. And the sun is shining. For the webfoots who spend months under gray skies west of the Cascades, that's a powerful attractant. Read More
