  • Bend offers plenty of possibilities for anyone looking for a short ride through the area. Let your guide plan out the day and visit some of the exhilarating trails such as Whoops Loop famous for its downhill ride. If you are a beginner and want to hone your skills, Phil’s Trail is one of the best trails in the area for you. Work on your technical knowledge, enjoy your day, and reward yourself with scenic panoramas and a glass of beer or kombucha with your guide!

    • 57hours is committed to providing safe outdoor adventure experiences. We require all guides using our platform to have a COVID-19 safety plan and to make the details of that plan accessible to travelers. In most cases, group sizes will be reduced, guides will avoid overcrowded locations, and other safety measures will be met depending on the location and activity.

      We also expect clients to respect local regulations and take measures to protect themselves, guides and the communities they’re travelling to. For more information on COVID-19 measures in Bend, please refer to Travel Oregon or Oregon Health Authority websites.

      Please contact us if you have any questions or require further information. We are happy to provide you with the most up-to-date information!

    • This is what you get on this adventure:

      • An experienced MTB guide with extensive local knowledge of the area
      • Lunch sandwiches for full-day adventure
      • Water bottle provided by your guide
      • Healthy snacks on the trail
      • Complimentary beer and kombucha upon return
      • Shuttle to and from the trailhead

      Mountain bike and helmet rentals are available for an added fee of $45-$85 per day from your guide. Kids bikes can be rented for $25. Rentals come with your choice of pedals.

    • You will need to be able to bike between two and six hours, depending on the itinerary you choose. After booking, your guide will determine the group’s skill level and capabilities and cater the day to your specific abilities. Keep in mind, opting for the full day option means more biking, which is strenuous even if you stay on beginner level trails.

    • As long as you pedal on two wheels, you can book this adventure. A guide will explain the different mountain bike techniques and body positions to get you feeling comfortable on the trial. You will progress at a level that is consistent with your comfort. Once you finally get the hang of trail riding, you will only want more!

      • Wear comfortable riding or athletic clothing, preferably moisture-wicking or synthetic material
      • Sneakers or sport shoes
      • Breathable outside layer or jacket
      • Sunglasses
      • Plenty of water, water bottle or hydration bladder
      • Daypack with snacks
      • Biking gloves are optional but recommended
      • Toiletries (sunscreen, hand sanitizer, bug spray, toilet paper, etc.)
    • One of the reasons why mountain biking is so popular is the rush of adrenaline it sends through your veins. Sure, danger is part of the appeal, but you’ll want to avoid any unnecessary risks by hiring a guide. They’ll make sure you enjoy the ride and feel safe while doing it. There is no road map or GPS technology out there that’s as good as having an experienced local guide to lead the way while mastering unfamiliar trails. There’s always more to see, and your guides know just where to go to find it!

    • With us, it’s all play and no work for you! 57hours is an open platform that connects you with trained and certified outdoor adventure professionals all over the world. Using our tech-savvy, we make it super easy to find and book adventures worth tackling, with guides worth booking, all gathered from the first-hand experiences of the locals who adventure in these amazing locations.

    • For this adventure, the usual client to guide ratio is 6:1, with up to 12 people in a group.

      The cost per person decreases as the group grows, so it’s the perfect opportunity to go mountain biking with friends and family.

      Private mountain biking in Bend, can be arranged as well for groups of more people. Contact us to make arrangements.

      • Anyone over the age of 13 is welcome to book this course.
      • Children as young up to age 12 are able to go on half-day trips with a legal guardian. That said, if you have a young rider strong enough to handle sustained climbs (either riding or walking their bike) of hundreds of feet, and rough terrain, then they may be able to participate on a case-by-case basis.
      • If your party has minors younger than 13 years old, contact us prior to booking to make arrangements.
    • Tours are scheduled to fit with the seasons and ideal cycling conditions. When the weather does not cooperate, your guide will know the correct course of action to take. Whether that’s shifting to a more favorable location or postponing until conditions approve, your guide will know just what to do. In the event of predictably bad weather, you will be contacted prior to the trip to discuss suitable alternatives.

    • We highly recommended that you cover all your bases with both emergency medical and travel insurance. With medical insurance, if you have an accident or medical emergency on or off the mountain, you’ll avoid paying out of pocket for costly expenses. This covers everything from hospital treatments to emergency air transportation and more.

      If you need assistance selecting the right insurance for your group, let us know and we will be happy to help!

    • To get to Bend, most people fly into Portland International Airport (PDX). From there, you can rent a car or take a shuttle service the 3.5 hours southeast to Bend.

      Once you and your guide agree on the details of your itinerary, your guide will suggest the best place to meet. Most of the tours and lessons start from the Cog Wild headquarters location. The guide will choose the appropriate terrain dependent on conditions and ability of the group.
