The Dalles to Dufur

Description

There is something on this ride for everyone, with farmland and quiet roads. This ride starts out with a 20 mile loop in The Dalles, beginning with a climb to warm-up and an epic descent. Then, we ascend through rolling hills (many great spots to take a picture) into the charming town of Dufur. Enjoy the gentle descent back into The Dalles.

Please allow at least two hours of driving time from Portland to the start.

Make sure to bring plenty of snacks as fuel for the hills, as much of the climbing is before we arrive in Dufur. There are a few cafés in Dufur to grab a snack (such as Kramer’s Market or WE3 Coffee and Deli).

Pace: Brisk, 15-17 mph. If you would like to ride a moderate 13-15 mph pace, please make sure to bring a copy of the map.

This ride may be cancelled in the event of adverse weather.
