For the best of both Oregon worlds, beat a hasty retreat to Bend, a central city home to a culturally-oriented community and close to ski slopes, raftable river, ragged mountains, golf courses, top climbing spots and peaceful forest.
Martin Prairie is a very pretty meadow. This is a good take off point to get to the Copple Butte Trail No. 3052. This is a good mountain bike trail for both beginners and advanced riders. The trail takes you into a road closed area, where the wildlife viewing is excellent.
This trail is open to hiking, mountain bikes, and horseback riding. The trail follows an old closed road and is easy to follow.
