The Baker City OR Loop is a paved 2 day ride in Northeastern Oregon.
The first leg starts in Baker City and crosses the low farmlands before climbing into the foothills in the Whitman National Forest. After descending into Union and crossing more farmlands riders climb again into another section of the Whitman NF. These climbs are full of curves and switchbacks. Eventually this ride descends again and weaves through La Grande and follows the Wallowa River into Enterprise.
The second leg of this ride starts in Enterprise, OR and while it is shorter than the first leg, it is still jam packed with many great miles. After leaving Enterprise riders quickly enters the Whitman NF again and approach Hell’s Canyon and the Snake River. This part of the ride is located in a valley parallel to the Snake River and contains the best section of the entire route. Eventually thr ride leaves the National Forest and crosses the valley back to the starting point of Baker City.
