A dawn chairlift up Mount Bachelor and para-glide over Pine Mountain? Perhaps a day on the Ale Trail in a horse-drawn carraige is more your speed? Either way, Bend is never less than enchanting. Newberry National Volcanic Monument offers sweeping views of the Lava Lands, shimmering with lakes. Bend's robust microbrewery scene offers flavors you won't find anywhere else (try the blackberry hard cider!). A year's worth of day trips await you.
