Cascade Lakes National Scenic Byway
~ Weather Permitting (Seasonally open June-October) ~ Take this incredible scenic drive past Mount Bachelor and pull over at any of the many lakes, hikes, and views! Our favorite stops are Elk Lake and Hosmer Lake!
Smith Rock State Park
Smith Rock can be whatever you want it to be: a viewpoint, photo back-drop, quick workout, easy walk, or steep climb! Our personal favorite is the Misery Ridge Trail - only 2.2 miles to get to stunning views, but you will have to work to get up there!
Central Oregon Hikes
There is no shortage of beautiful hikes in the area. Anything from easy river trails to epic peak climbs is at your fingertips. The Deschutes River trail was frequented by the happy couple during the early days of the pandemic. The bride's favorite moderate hike is Tumalo Falls. Millie, the couple's dog, first learned to swim at the Benham Falls Trail!
