The McKenzie Pass-Santiam Pass loop is a National Scenic Byway. Though accessible from cities west of the Cascades, Sisters is the place to begin this beautiful drive through two Cascade passes, past lava flows, and through 10,000-foot peaks. This loop can easily be driven in 3-5 hours, but plan to take longer if you want to enjoy all it has to offer. Total distance of the trip is 82 miles. The best time is July-October as McKenzie Pass is closed in the winter months. McKenzie Pass is closed to vehicles over 35 feet in total length and is not advised for trailers.
