Big climbs
Guided
To alpine mountaintops, along the raging Snake River, through Hells Canyon (North America’s deepest river gorge), high into the Wallowa Mountains and through ghost towns, bustling villages, and the painted hills of ancient fossil beds in between.
The Wallowa Mountains of northeastern Oregon, sometimes referred to as the “Alps of Oregon”, offer very remote riding through dense alpine forests and steep canyons which spill out into large open valleys. This region was the ancestral home to the Wallowa band of the Lower Nez Perce who once held one of the largest Native American reservations here until the push of settlers heading west reduced the size of the reservation instigating the Nez Perce War in 1877. Times are more peaceful these days and the myriad friendly small and old western style towns, even a few ghost towns, dot the region between the vast openness of the wide valleys and high mountains.
Highlights of the Wallowa bike tour include the charming artist’s town of Joseph, the Snake River Canyon, Rattlesnake Hill and much more…
This tour is geared towards intermediate to advanced cyclists looking fair amounts of climbing along remote back country roads.
