High Desert Museum
At the daily shows and demonstrations, wildlife experts will
help you learn about the Museum's more than 100 wildlife
creatures -- from porcupines, golden eagles and owls, to
bats, lizards, snakes and spiders.
...Get inside an outdoor tipi. Wind through a dark mine
shaft. Pet the woolly sheep at the working homestead. Smell
the fresh pine logs being cut at the 19th-century,
steam-powered sawmill.
The High Desert Museum's 53,000-square-foot
main building anchors a quarter-mile trail that winds along
a tranquil stream and through aspens and ponderosa pines.
Guests may walk this trail to reach 32,000 square feet of
exhibits and animal habitats.
The High Desert Museum is located
10 miles north of Sunriver off of Highway 97 (before Bend).
The Museum is open 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
daily, except for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's
Day.
