Welcome to the Maupin Area Chamber of Commerce!

The Maupin area offers a refreshing retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. A small town pace in an area filled with unspoiled desert beauty will set your visit in the right frame of mind. Located just 45 minutes south of The Dalles on Hwy 197, and just a short drive from the Portland or Bend areas. Recognized for superb white water excitement and world-class wild trout and steelhead fishing. Maupin is your headquarters for outdoor recreation.

You will see that many trout fishermen have found the secret in April. Then whitewater fills the middle of the summer, and steelhead fishermen get the river to themselves until the middle of November. This leaves a couple of the areas best secrets, early spring and late fall. June 6 brings the Opening Day of the River celebration, and Sept 19th offers the end of the season, RiverFest on the Deschutes.

With over 300 days of sunshine a year there is plenty of nice weather for any visit to the area.
