Headwaters

Start your journey at OSU-Cascades with us for three wonderful days filled with exploring Bend's backyard on top of a stand up paddle board! Connect with fellow students while paddling on the water in alpine lakes and beautifully wooded rivers. After getting off the water, enjoy newfound friendships back at camp and sleep in the cool, crisp air while underneath the stars.

We welcome all experience levels for this trip. Please note that this trip is designed for people who have little to no experience stand up paddle boarding. The nature of the trip and difficulty will reflect this intention. If you are highly experienced and/or looking for an advance stand up paddle board trip to push your limits, please understand this might not be the trip for you.
