There’s no better gift you could give the family this year than a trip outside tradition to Bend, Oregon for a Thanksgiving getaway they’ll never forget. Here in Bend, late November is a priceless time of year. You’ll get to see not only all our gorgeous fall foliage, but you’ll get to enjoy our fall activities too! Here are some of the things we’re most excited for this year during Thanksgiving in Bend:

Outdoor Adventures in Autumn

Take a nature hike together into stunning fall foliage. Whether you’re heading down the Deschutes River Trail and enjoying the view of the water and your close proximity to the fun-filled Old Mill District or you go farther from town all the way up to the lovely Tumalo Falls or Sparks Lake, you’ll be endlessly glad that you came at this breathtaking time of year when our Oregon world is aglow with autumn colors.

Family Activities to Enjoy Together

On November 22nd you’ll get to do the 4th Friday Art Stroll in Sisters. This event is free and culturally enriching for the whole family! Enjoy the gorgeous art and each other’s company at the same time as you stroll around taking in the paintings, photography, sculptures, and more. Visit the Mountain Air Trampoline Park to work out some energy—it’s fun for all ages! Take the family to explore the Desert High Museum, where you’ll get well-acquainted with the culture of Bend. On cozy late November evenings, one of our favorite places to visit is Tower Theatre. Check out their website to see showing times during your stay in Bend.

Thanksgiving Day & Dinner

On the day of Thanksgiving in Bend you can participate in a fun local event: Pray for Snow, hosted at Sun Mountain Fun Center with no entry fee. Bring the whole family along to play games, and you’ll get the chance to win some pretty fabulous prizes. There are tons of great dining options for your Thanksgiving meals too, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Try 10 Below, a local favorite, or Jackelope Grill, or one of our personal favorites, Black Bear Diner. All of these lovely establishments are open for business on Thanksgiving Day.
