7 Things to Do on a Snowy Bend Vacation
Generally, winter in Bend sees daily highs around the mid-40s, with lows resting around the mid-20s. This means conditions are perfect for outdoor adventures and plenty of fresh powder.
- Plan a day trip to Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort. This Bend attraction is home to all kinds of winter fun, including skiing, snowboarding, and sled dog rides. We recommend purchasing your lift tickets as soon as possible.
- See what guided outings are available from Wanderlust Tours. Several excursions are offered from November to April, including snowshoe tours, moonlight snowshoe tours, and cave tours.
- Explore the winter wonderland cross-country skiing at Shevlin Park. Trails here are ungroomed, so we recommend that only experienced Nordic skiers explore this park. For groomed trails, visit the Skyline Sports Complex.
- For an adventure with a bit more thrill, go snowmobiling. Adrenaline Rentals and Elevation Rentals have a number of different rental options, while Cascade Snow Bike offers guided snow biking.
- If you’re hoping to go ice skating, head to The Pavilion. There are several public skating sessions a week, and rental skates are available for everyone from toddlers to adults.
- Bend WinterFest is one of the most anticipated events of the year. Taking place in mid-February, the annual festival features incredible live music, an Ollie contest, ice carving, and more.
- See what fun you can discover right at our Bend resort. Soothe sore muscles with a massage at Juniper Spa, or warm up with a delicious meal in one of our exceptional restaurants.
