There's time for an extra shot in your latte in
town, because you only have to ride a few
minutes to amazing singletrack through the
Deschutes National Forest. All levels love the
gradual ascents and Whoops, a smile-inducing
stretch of banked corners and jumps, with links
to higher elevation rides challenging enough to
entertain the most accomplished riders.

MRAZEK

In Bend, you don’t need to shuttle to access
fantastic, full-throttle high-country singletrack. Splash across creeks, zip through grassy
meadows and take in the scent of wildflowers as
you experience nearly every variety of terrain.

Take your bike on the chairlift on this 9,000foot volcano for views stretching hundreds
of miles and scream down thrilling intermediate and advanced downhill trails created
by the world’s premier bike park planners.

NORTH FORK / FAREWELL LOOP

Climb along Tumalo Creek past seven waterfalls and through old growth forest, then
descend on one of Bend’s most popular and
demanding rides.

Hailed as the number-one mountain biking trail in
the U.S., these 26 miles of technical and demanding singletrack take you through moss-covered
temperate rain forest.

Ride through an open juniper forest on the north
face of a high desert ridge with expansive views
of Bend and the Cascades. Expect technical sections packed with challenges.
