The BEST 4 Days in Bend, Oregon! (FOOD, Snowshoeing, Tumalo Falls, Newberry Volcano, & Smith Rock)

Hello from one of our FAVORITE cities in the Pacific Northwest…Bend, Oregon! Bend is located in Central Oregon and is a year round outdoor playground, with the epic Cascade Mountains nearby, volcanic history, snow activities, hiking trails, lakes, rivers, and so much MORE! We first visited Bend back in September 2018 and fell in love with the area. And we are so pumped to have partnered with Visit Bend to experience Bend in a new season for us…spring! 🔗Links A HUGE thank you to Visit Bend for sponsoring this video.
