WORLD CLASS RACES

Become your own legend

bend racing is the gateway to the most rewarding adventure races in the pacific northwest!

The Oregon Adventure Race Series

We’re excited to bring a new adventure racing series to Oregon and help grow and progress the sport we love!

The Oregon Adventure Race Series will take racers across some of the most incredible and diverse terrain in the state—from rugged mountain trails and winding rivers to waterfalls, forests, singletrack, and high-desert landscapes. Each race will bring its own unique challenges, with plenty of navigation, adventure, and opportunities to push your limits.

​

And for those who love a little friendly competition, every race counts toward the series!

There will be series rankings across all race categories, with your top three race results counting toward your final series ranking. At the end of the season, we’ll celebrate the overall series champions with cash prizes and, of course, plenty of bragging rights.

​

Bring the Whole Family!

We believe adventure racing is for everyone—and that the best adventures are even better when you share them. Every race in the series except the Smith Rock Scramble will also offer a Family Race, giving kids and adults a chance to get out there, navigate, explore, and play together.

Whether you’re a seasoned adventure racer chasing the podium, a family looking for a new way to explore Oregon, or somewhere in between, there’s a place for you in the Oregon Adventure Race Series.

More races. More adventure. More Oregon.

Come explore, navigate, race, and help us grow adventure racing across the state!
