Easy hikes near Bend

Gentler routes within about an hour of Bend.

Easy here is a calculation, not an opinion: OpenTrail rates difficulty from length and elevation gain, so a flat six-mile river path and a steep one-mile scramble are not both filed under "moderate" because a reviewer felt differently on the day.

That cuts both ways, and it is worth saying plainly. A route can rate easy on grade and still be a poor idea in practice — an exposed high-desert trail in August, or a Cascade approach still under snow in June. Each page shows the steepest sustained stretches alongside the average, which is usually the number that decides whether a walk is pleasant.
