It’s no secret that we adore Bend and think it’s one of the best all-around towns in Oregon. Not only does this charming locale have a soft spot for the nostalgic, but it’s also the ultimate outdoor enthusiast’s playground. Snowshoeing, skiing, hiking, and kayaking… you can do it all in this Central Oregon town. And while the outdoor recreation here is spectacular any time of the year, there’s just something extra special about visiting Bend, Oregon (and the towns near Bend, Oregon for that matter) when the weather is warm. In fact, we think it’s one of the best spring break destinations in the US!
