Overview

About this park

LaPine State Park occupies a scenic spot along the trout-filled Upper Deschutes River in a high desert subalpine forest.

Come winter, enjoy snowshoeing and cross-country skiing on the park trails, while staying in one of our 10 cozy cabins. Summer calls for boating, wading and floating.
