What’s the best route from Portland to Bend?
I’m heading down to Bend from Portland to visit my family for a few days. What’s the best route to get there?
Andrea Barrett · Updated on
Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
Here’s how to get to Bend from Portland:
- Get on I-84 E from SE Morrison Bridge
- Take the I-5 N/I-84 E ramp to Airport/Seattle/The Dalles
- Take US-26 E and US-97 S to NW Hawthorne Ave in Bend
This roughly 160-mile drive covers some gorgeous terrain, from mountain hikes near Mt. Hood with spectacular views to bright fields full of wildflowers. You’ll go through mountain passes, dense forests, and sprawling deserts along the way.
Here are some ideas for stops on your trip:
- Portland Japanese Gardens
- Multnomah Falls
- Timberline Lodge
- Trillium Lake
- Peter Skene Ogden State Park
- Tamolitch Pool
- Tumalo Falls
- Smith Rock State Park
- Pilot Butte State Scenic Viewpoint
Planning the best route between the two cities might be challenging, but choosing an affordable car insurance policy to keep you safe along the way shouldn’t be. When you shop with
