Fall is the perfect time to enjoy a hike in Oregon. Not only are the trails often less crowded with people, but the air tends to be the perfect temperature — not too hot, not too cold. Most importantly, you’ll have a front row seat to view breathtaking fall foliage.

One of the most ideal hikes to take this fall in the Beaver State is the Suttle Lake Loop Trail. Take a look:

The beautiful Suttle Lake Loop Trail is located within the Deschutes National Forest near Sisters, Oregon.

While this trail is beautiful at any time of year, the changing leaves make fall a perfect time to explore.

The easy 3.6-mile trail features stunning views of Mount Washington and Black Butte.

There are plenty of spots to stop and go fishing or have a picnic.

The trail also runs through some developed campgrounds around the lake before returning to Suttle Lodge.

When you finish your adventure, you can kick back and relax with a lovely meal at the Suttle Lodge.
