HIKING STRATEGIES & TIPS Exploring Upper Deschutes River Shoreline Trail! | Central Oregon | 4K
In my opinion, there are about 8 Miles of PREMIUM River Shoreline Hiking on Deschutes River Trail along National Wild & Scenic Upper Deschutes River, Deschutes National Forest, Central Oregon.
This is EASILY a TOP 5 River Shoreline Hike in the Great State of Oregon! There are 3 Strategic Approaches to Capture/Tackle this EPIC area:
1) 8 Mile Point-to-Point Hike from Meadow Day Use Area to Sun-Lava Path Trailhead (called East Benham Falls Trailhead on Google Maps), in either Direction, need to arrange transportation at end of Hike!
2) 16 Mile Out & Back Hike from Meadow Day Use Area to Dillon Falls to Benham Falls to Sun-Lava Path Trailhead (called East Benham Falls Trailhead on Google Maps), in either Direction, no transportation logistics required, the Superstar Hiker Method!
3) Break Deschutes River Trail up into 2 separate more leisurely 8-Miles'ish Out & Back Hikes using Dillon Falls as the Midpoint:
a) Meadow Day Use Area Trailhead to Dillon Falls & Back.
b) Sun-Lava Path Trailhead (called East Benham Falls Trailhead on Google Maps) to Dillon Falls & Back.

It was a Low of 29F. Here is the FULL HIKE Video Link of that Hike:
