Things to Do in Bend
Plan a Day of Fun in the Snow (and sometimes Sun!) at Mt. Bachelor
Do you love to go outside to ski, snowboard, snowshoe, or sled in the snow! Mt. Bachelor offers world-class snow and an impressive list of options to have fun on the Mountain. Please note that there are COVID-19 policies in place and review them before heading to the mountain. That said, it is still an easy and safe way to make memories at Mt. Bachelor this year!
Enjoy a Family-Friendly Hike Along the Deschutes River Trail
We love to spend a day hiking along a stretch of the 11-mile Deschutes River Trail. The scenery is stunning, no matter what the weather, and the hike is enjoyable for all skill levels. The trail is dog-friendly, too! (leash required) We love the part of the trail that winds toward Benham Falls and the stretch that runs just under Mt. Bachelor Village Resort by Meredith Lodging.
Enjoy an Afternoon of Ice Skating
There are several options to enjoy ice skating in and around Bend. The Pavilion is an impressive facility, offering both open skate times and recreation/sports lessons opportunities for ice skating, curling, and hockey. If you are looking to skate under the stars in a more intimate setting, consider a visit to The Seventh Mountain Resort’s charming outdoor rink.
Spend a Day Supporting Local Businesses on Wall Street in Downtown Bend
Art galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and bars can all be found in historic Downtown Bend. Spend all your shopping money at Lark Mountain Modern, Hot Box Betty, Jack + Millie and Found Natural Goods.
