Join us for the Big Butte Challenge, where families, friends, and individuals come together to explore eight butte-iful buttes & breweries across Central Oregon, between Memorial Day and Labor Day Weekend. Their reward? Custom Big Butte Merch, swag bags, and a free pint at each butte-sponsored brewery.
Once registered, participants receive a swag bag with beer tokens, merch, and other surprise goodies from our sponsors. Participants hike or run each butte on their own schedule, and then head to the sponsored brewery to celebrate their victory with a complimentary pint. Prizes awarded for the first to summit all buttes, best photos, and more!
So gather your favorite people or challenge your work buddies to a summertime showdown. The Big Butte Challenge is the ultimate chance to get outside, explore new heights, and celebrate our beautiful state. Don’t miss out, sign up today! Registration is open at bigbuttechallenge.com. The registration fee is $60 for all eight buttes, $15 for youth, and $20 for a single Butte.
