Bend

Bend is best known within Oregon for the Deschutes River, which runs through the city and has long shaped its outdoor culture. Set on the eastern flank of the Cascade Range, it occupies central Oregon’s high-desert country, with the volcanic cinder cone of Pilot Butte rising within the city limits. Bend developed as a timber town in the early 20th century; the Old Mill District now stands on the former Brooks-Scanlon mill site beside the river. River trails, paddling and nearby mountain routes give the city an active, four-season character. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Bend and central Oregon.
