AdvenTours Accessible Guided Scenic Hike at Smith Rock State Park

  • Wanderlust Tours Office, Fred Meyer Shopping Complex 61535 S. Hwy 97 Ste. 13 Bend, OR, 97702 United States (map)

Adventure: Wanderlust Tours is excited to bring more access to the outdoors by partnering with AdvenChair through AdvenTours to help those with mobility challenges get into the outdoors and explore beautiful areas that initially may not seem accessible. With the AdvenChair off-road wheelchair and the incredible team of volunteers at AdvenChair, we will enjoy the reward of stunning views and learn about the incredible geologic history of Smith Rock State Park!

Naturalist Guided Experience: Arriving at the awe-inspiring Smith Rock State Park, we. will begin our descent into the Crooked River canyon and hike along the spectacular riparian habitat. From here our options are many, from a beautiful and flat wander along the river scouting for otters and osprey to a steeper hike up a ridge for stunning views of the Cascade Mountains! Both hikes will enliven the senses and spark wonder at the fantastic geology that shapes this incredible canyon.
