Miles of trailway—51 miles in fact—weaving through sagebrush and volcanic rock delight the senses and ignite an excitement for exploration. Come snow or sunshine, the opportunity to commune with Mother Nature is abundant. Welcome to Bend, Oregon. This destination on the Deschutes River at the eastern edge of the Cascades is where ponderosa pine forests meet the high desert.
