There’s No Play Like Snow Play
Bend has two nearby ski resorts boasting plenty of fresh powder and long runs. Both Mt. Bachelor and Hoodoo Ski Area offer boundless ski, snowboard, and cross-country ski trails. Buy those lift tickets ahead of time, since COVID regulations require advance reservations in many places. For a little family fun, grab your sleds and head for one of several sno-parks in the region.
Embrace the dizzying joy of winter with a twirl around an ice rink, rent a snowmobile for a high-octane adventure, or head out on a guided snowshoe hike from Wanderlust Tours.
