Experience a tandem kayak lake tour and enjoy the best mountainous views in Central Oregon.

Meet your local guide in the heart of Bend, Oregon. Along with the rest of your group, make your way out of town and up into the Cascade mountain lakes where your kayaking adventure begins.

Receive a lesson on kayaking safety measures before climbing into your tandem sit-on-top kayak.

Navigate your way through little-known caves, bays, and wetlands with the help of your naturalist guide. Keep a look out for the otters, mink, osprey and eagles that inhabit this area, and bring a camera for the best mountain views in Central Oregon.

After around 2 hours of paddling and admiring your surroundings, you'll have time for a quick dip in the lakes to cool off. Prior to leaving, take in the views of mountains Three Sisters, Broken Top, and Paulina Peak. You’ll then head back to your kayaking starting point and be driven back to Bend.

(PLEASE NOTE: During the months of May & October, our kayak tours may take place on a flat stretch of the Deschutes River if cooler temps and snow are still present on the high-elevation lakes. During this transitionary period of spring and fall, the guide may also decide to use canoes instead of kayaks based on weather, wind and other factors.)
