ABOUT
Adventure: Celebrate Winter PrideFest and inclusivity in the outdoors in true Bend fashion! Cruising on snowshoes, our destination is a hand-carved amphitheater in the snow where a crackling bonfire awaits. Join us for a journey through the powdery snow-filled forest as the sun sets in the Cascade Mountains west of Bend, Oregon.
Naturalist Guided Experience: Kicking through the snow-laden forest as the sun begins to set beyond the mountains, our nose will, in part, lead us to a Michaelangelo-esque creation- an amazing snow built amphitheater. When the whiff of pine hits our nostrils, anticipation will grow for a taste of delectable desserts and hazelnut espresso vodka-laced hot cocoa. The hushed ambience of the forest will stir your soul as we relax in the glow of the fire. The magic of this wholly unique experience will remain instilled within you forever!
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 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.
Free boot and pant rentals if needed!
