TTN - Bend

This trip is for people who want range—real range—without bouncing all over a map. Bend is one of Camp Yoshi’s most special places on the planet because of how much it holds in one region: high desert, lava fields, alpine lakes, forests, volcanoes, and water, all within reach. The Lava Lands experience grounds you in the raw, volcanic story of the area, while Crater Lake reminds you just how wild and precise nature can be.

The pace is intentional and accessible, with walking and light hiking balanced by time to pause, learn, and take it in. This trip is for guests who like variety without chaos—movement without exhaustion—and who appreciate understanding whya place looks and feels the way it does. If you want to experience two dramatically different ecosystems in one thoughtful arc, and understand why Bend continues to anchor Camp Yoshi’s work, this trip will land deep and stay with you.

Visit our Contact page. We might be outside when you hit send, but we’ll get back to you as soon as we can.

We design our experiences with care and commit early to the people and places that make them possible—farmers, chefs, guides, drivers, and hosts. Because of this, our cancellation policy is built to balance flexibility for our guests with fairness to our partners.

If you cancel 90 or more days before departure, you may choose either a full refund minus a 5% processing fee, or a Camp Yoshi credit valid for 18 months. Credits are transferable and can be applied to any Camp Yoshi experience.

If you cancel between 60 and 89 days before departure, you will receive a 50% refund and a 50% Camp Yoshi credit, valid for 18 months.

If you cancel between 31 and 59 days before departure, you will receive a Camp Yoshi credit for 75% of your total trip cost, valid for 12 months. At this stage, most logistics are locked, but we want to make it possible to join us again when timing allows.

Cancellations made within 30 days of departure are non-refundable, as lodging, food, staffing, and permits have been finalized. In some cases, credits may be considered if we are able to fill your spot. We encourage guests to reach out early—communication matters.

At any point prior to departure, you may transfer your reservation to another guest at no additional cost, provided they meet the trip requirements. This is often the easiest way to recover your full investment.

If Camp Yoshi needs to cancel a trip for any reason, guests will receive a full refund or a full Camp Yoshi credit, at their choice.

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your investment against unexpected changes.

Nope. Not here. The only thing we’re shooting is photos and maybe an espresso shot before the hike.

We love a good toast. Alcohol is not included in the trip price, but campers are welcome to purchase their own — and trust, there will be plenty of opportunities to lean into the island’s rum, wine, and cocktails. At certain meals, we’ll include alcohol pairings (think bubbles at sunset or a local rum tasting), but for the most part, it’s BYOB or direct-purchase.

Cannabis? Only where it’s legal and if it fits the vibe. Out on boats, during hikes, or in technical terrain, it’s off-limits. Trust us: kayaking through a glowing bioluminescent bay at night is a natural high all on its own.

Yes. Food is the heartbeat here. Vegan, gluten-free, pescatarian — we’ll make sure your plate feels thoughtful. Just know this is harvest-to-table, so flexibility helps. If a fisherman pulls in snapper that morning, it’s going on the grill.

Once you make a payment, each camper on your reservation will receive an e-mail asking to complete their Camper Profile where allergies and dietary restrictions can be shared.

We get it — life happens. But because of how remote some of our trips are, arrivals and departures are coordinated pretty tightly. If you need to arrive late or duck out early, let us know before booking so we can figure out if it’s possible.

Think of us as your guides, hosts, and low-key hype team. Your local guide plus the Camp Gurus handle the logistics, transport, meals, and all the behind-the-scenes wizardry. We also roll with wilderness first responders, so you can feel safe going deep. Your only job? Show up and live it.

Nature’s the creative director. Weather, permits, or partner shifts may tweak the plan. Nothing cancels—it adapts. You’ll still get the magic, just in a different wrapper.

Nope. If you want to skip a hike and linger at the hotel with a book and a poolside spritz, go for it. That said, this trip is designed like a story — each chapter builds on the last. Miss one, and you might miss the plot twist.

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect your investment—especially for any non-refundable portions.
