Bend grew up as a lumber mill town on the Deschutes River and has become the largest city in Central Oregon and one of the fastest-growing in the state. Sunshine, mountain views and year-round recreation have drawn a mix of outdoor-industry companies, tech startups, remote workers, entrepreneurs and retirees, and healthcare, tourism, construction and real estate are major parts of the economy. Deschutes Brewery started here in 1988, and the town now has a large number of breweries and a lively restaurant scene.
Bend is about three hours from Portland over the Cascades, a drive that can be slow and snowy in winter, and the nearest airline service is at Redmond, about 16 miles north. Flying private lets you land at Bend Municipal Airport on the east side of town and be on the slopes, the river or a golf course within the hour. Visitors ski and snowboard at Mount Bachelor, float the Deschutes through town, climb at Smith Rock and explore the lava flows and caves of Newberry National Volcanic Monument, while the resorts of Sunriver and the town of Sisters are close by.

Things to do in Bend
When to go. Bend’s high desert climate brings plenty of sunshine, with warm, dry summer days and cool nights, ideal for river floats, hiking, golf and mountain biking. Mount Bachelor’s ski season usually runs from late November into spring, with some of the longest seasons in the region. Spring and fall are quieter and pleasant, and fall brings golden aspens and larches to the Cascade Lakes area. Summer and holiday weekends book up early.
