The name Metolius means “white fish,” and the waters were considered a sacred source of life for Oregon’s native people. A fall visit to the Metolius reveals how its life-giving setting still casts a spell today. Mossy banks, smoothed boulders and deep pools set nature’s stage for world-class bird watching, fly fishing and hiking.

The area carved by the Metolius offers an unrivaled experience to watch summer’s leisurely hand-off to autumn, as the crisp air arrives and the vine maple leaves transform into ember hues of fiery red and golden yellow. With inspired lodging options that offer crackling fires, seasonal fare and strolls under the glowing deciduous trees, the Metolius holds the best fall has to offer for a weekend retreat.

PARAGLIDING
Wind socks lead a path through the sagebrush as student pilots of Astro Paragliding maneuver nylon canopies into the air—“kiting” as they learn to fly. A barbecue is at the ready for post-training gatherings while Astro Paragliding’s founder Harrison Ruffin and his wife Heather instruct and tell stories from the sidelines, inviting all who arrive to share their passion for this extreme sport.

A pursuit that inspires pilots to travel the world in search of the perfect launch has a home in Central Oregon, roughly 30 miles east of Bend, at Pine Mountain. “I moved here for the flying,” said Austin Miles, an Atlanta native who now lives in Bend. “Pine Mountain is an epic launch site.”

The Big Butte Challenge is a go-at-your-own pace event put on by Cascade Relays. This all-ages adventure offers community spirit while tackling peaks within driving distance of Bend. For each summit achieved, hikers receive a token that can be redeemed at the local brewery sponsoring each butte.

This year, roughly 500 people are hiking, running or even biking the trails, which runs from May through October. The one who finishes bagging all nine peaks first gets a prize, but the real reward comes with each mountain conquered: stunning views of the mountains, lakes and stretches of land that make Bend such a magical place to call home. The ice cold brew is the cherry on the top.
