Lush ancient forests, water falls, covered bridges, lava fields, thundering rivers, sparkling lakes, snowcapped volcanic peaks, secret hot springs - the Oregon Cascades has it all!
Starting at the base of
Mount Hood, on this cycling vacation we'll ride the entire 220 mile Cascades Scenic Byway, the
incredible McKenzie Pass Scenic Byway, around world famous Crater Lake, then
swing over toward Bend to bicycle the Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway.
