Riley Ranch Nature Reserve was established on Bend’s northwestern edge and encompasses more than 180 acres. The land features a 30-acre rimrock cliff band and approximately 35 acres of canyon floor running along the scenic Deschutes River. Boasting primarily rugged terrain, Riley Ranch Nature Reserve provides a unique “near-to-home” nature experience. Thanks to the unique location of the nature reserve adjacent to the river, Riley Ranch provides dramatic views of both the river canyon and the Cascade Mountains. There are several miles of trails guests can use. Visitors should note that bikes and dogs are not permitted in the reserve.
