Oregon Outback Scenic Byway
A remote high-desert corridor of volcanic buttes, sagebrush plains, rim cliffs and alkaline lakes—the Oregon Outback Scenic Byway offers huge skies, sweeping panoramas (Abert Rim views), seasonal wildflowers and birding at Summer Lake. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm sidelight and long shadows; nights are excellent for Milky Way work. Roadside pullouts and small towns provide parking and basic services; bring fuel, water and layers—some stretches are isolated and cell service is limited.
