Naturalist Guided Experience: Situated in close proximity to the Pacific Ocean, the mountains which build Bend’s backdrop, typically get hammered with 400-600 inches of fluffy snow in winter. Most importantly, this frozen substance provides life for all things on earth, but it also provides an outstanding chance to view how nature reacts and adapts during the winter months. The single best way to observe nature in winter?- strapping snowshoes to your feet! The native wildlife in Central Oregon have adapted to the deep snow and it is the best time of year to follow tracks of pine martens and fox while we make tracks of our own. A stunning, fun-filled experience awaits you as our guides will inspire you with new understandings you may have never considered!
Location: Snowshoeing tours take place in the areas around Mt. Bachelor and the surrounding Deschutes National Forest of the Cascade Mountain Range of Oregon. New to off-trail snowshoeing? Let Wanderlust Tours do the driving, break trail, and teach you fun snowshoeing techniques and tricks. All tours include instruction. Wear winter boots and powder/ski pants to keep your feet and legs dry while snowshoeing.
