Start your day off with a hike at Smith Rock State Park! Upon our arrival at the park, you will enjoy a wonderful hike along the Crooked River. As we hike along this family-friendly trail don’t be surprised if you see River Otters swimming in the river, or Golden Eagles nesting in the cliff faces. You will also see a rock climber scaling the faces of the cliffs and climbing Monkey Face! Smith Rock is Oregon’s premier rock climbing destination, and one of the best sport climbing areas in the United States. This world-renowned sport climbing mecca has more than once been at the focal point of the climbing world. Extensive development took place in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s by locals and international climbers alike, who put up scores of classic climbs on the tuff and basalt cliffs; development continues to this day with new moderates and cutting-edge routes going up each year. The distance we will hike depends on the size of the group and the ability levels of everyone hiking.
After exploring Smith Rock we will stop for lunch (not included in price) in the town of Sisters, Oregon.
When you pull into the Old West town of Sisters, you’ll feel like you’re making a getaway. This friendly little outpost in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains draws visitors for its profound natural beauty as well as annual celebrations like the Sisters Rodeo, the Sisters Quilt Show (held the second Saturday in July), and the Sister Folk Festival (drawing crowds in September).
In Sisters, you will find unique shops and art galleries that make shopping more than just retail therapy. It’s a cultural experience. Sisters is proud of its reputation as an arts community and is home to a vast number of incredibly talented individuals. Many unique galleries featuring clay work, sculpture, photography, paintings, jewelry, fiber art, and much more can be found throughout Sisters. And most recently Sisters Country is very proud of its growing collection of Public Art.
After your afternoon in Sisters, we will drive you back to your hotel in Bend.
