Hiked the trail without getting lost!
Beautiful falls all along the way with plenty of rest stops. Trail dificulty was moderate and not crowded (very important in this time of COVID). No problme with parking.

Worth the huffing and puffing!
One of the best views in central Oregon that I feel is somewhat of an easier hike considering the view! It is uphill the whole way, but the pitch isn't too steep. I am not is top shape and was able to make it. Views of Broken Top Mountain to the North and Mount Bachelor to the South. Elevation gain of 1400 ft. in about 1.5 miles. Worth the huffing and puffing!

Steep Trail to Impressive Views
The trailhead is about 20 miles from Bend. It is 4 miles up and back. Starts in the forest. Views improve as you climb and the forest thins. Summit is at elevation 7780'. You get good views of Mount Bachelor, South Sister, Middle Sister and Broken Top. Saw two hikers on our way up and nine hikers coming down on a Sunday morning.

A great hike summer or winter.
Tumalo Mt. nestled amidst the Cascade range and provides a great hiking experience in the summer and great snowshoe hiking and cross-country skiing in the winter. Remember to dress appropriately for whichever season you choose. Proper footgear is a must. Some parts can be steep and blisters can develop if not wearing shoes designed for hiking. Be prepared for beautiful vistas from the East or West. Plan your hike for early morning or evening and you will be rewarded with a picture taking moment to remember for a lifetime. Pack light and take plenty of water and some energy bars and you are all set.
