About the book:

This third edition (2011 Edition) of All Around Bend offers 160 pages of current and accurate descriptions and recommendations on area attractions...accompanied by photographs, detailed maps and driving directions. It is meant to be a premier outdoor travel guide for Central Oregon, and you'll find it does not focus on businesses, shopping or restaurants, just activities and attractions. This book is written both for locals and Bend visitors alike.

Corrections: These are the typos and content corrections that have been discovered over the years. Please observe these!

1. 2010 Edition: Fort Rock/Christmas Valley entry (2010 edition page 125) is not 35 minutes away, it is 1 hour and 35 minutes.

2. 2010/11: Smith Rock is a state park, therefore a NW Forest Pass is NOT valid. You must pay at the parking area. These small parking fees help keep Smith Rock clean and maintained for you and the next generation to enjoy!

Bend Visitor Bureau says: “This is the #1 recommended guide to Central Oregon for those who are looking for an overview of activities within the Bend area. Landgraf not only gives in depth information about the best hiking, mountain biking and swimming spots, but he lists popular events, gives a little history of Bend’s roundabout art, and provides details about Bend’s many craft breweries.”
