Haystack and Back
Keep The Haystack in mind for a sunny, mild winter day. This 20-mile gravel bike ride, described in detail on the Dirty Freehub website, travels from Peter Skene Ogden State Scenic Viewpoint, up to Haystack Reservoir, and down through the Crooked River National Grasslands.
Running the Deschutes River Trail
The Deschutes River Trail – a true Bend classic – traverses nearly 20 miles through pine forests, lava flows, rapids, and the City’s riverfront neighborhoods. Segments of this trail make the perfect after work out-and-back, or a great, accessible way for visitors to experience the river’s beauty.
