Central Oregon... we lie at the eastern base of the Cascade Mountains. The Oregon Coast is three hours to the West, and to the East... well, we've got every angle covered. Where else offers such a sampling of adventure and experiences? Are you the more casual, take-it-easy type while on vacation? Try some brewery tours, short hikes and art gallery exhibits. If you prefer dirt in your teeth and the wind in your hair, we offer you skiing and snowboarding, mountain biking and rock climbing. We get big-name concerts at the Les Schwab Ampitheater and host a variety of festivals throughout the year.
