🥾Walk Deschutes River Trail Loop 4.5 Miles Easy

🥾Wow, it's been two months since I've scheduled this convenient, in-town local favorite! Let's do the river trail in the morning to beat the heat and avoid the crowds!! Lots of shade on this hike.

This easy 4.5 mile hike is one of my favorites! We will start at Blakely Park in SW Bend which is near Reed Market Rd and Old Mill Roundabout.
We will take the Canal Trail to where it intersects with the Deschutes River Trail. We’ll do the full DRT Loop and then returned via the Canal Trail back to Blakely Park. This is not the Central Oregon Canal Trail Out And Back Hike that I sometimes post.
