Shaved ice truck for parties, special events

We’re mobile. We’re fun. We’re stocked with the most delicious flavors you’ve ever tasted.  Need a moment of pre bliss? Kona Ice has you covered.  Come visit us. Let our sweet tunes sweep you away to an island in the middle of the ocean and while you’re there, kick up your feet and enjoy a nice cup of our premium shaved ice.

How do we book you?  Glad you asked! Our Find a Kona feature allows you to search your zip code to find the Kona truck that’s closest to you.  Getting in contact with them will allow you to book your event or inquire about any pricing or information you may need to know.  Go ahead, call.  We promise they don’t bite.  Find your local Kona Ice truck at www.kona-ice.com

Are you an ice cream truck? Well, it depends on what you call an ice cream truck. Some of our trucks do sell ice cream, but we like to think we’re more than just your average, run of the mill, ice cream truck. Unlike an ice cream truck, Kona Ice is about more than just the product. We’re about the experience. Want to know more about if we are an ice cream truck?

What is shaved ice? The easy answer is it’s ice that is shaved. But I know you’re looking for more than that. So check out our shaved ice page. I bet you’ll discover all sorts of stuff you never knew you wanted to know! Want to know more about shaved ice?

Where did Kona Ice originate? Kona Ice was started in Northern Kentucky in 2007. Our boss thought, “Hey, people don’t sell shaved ice off of trucks. Also, ice cream trucks are creepy. What if we sold shaved ice off of a truck that was super fun and inviting?” And thus, Kona Ice was born. Okay, there’s more to the story than that.

Ponderosa Pine forest, camping, recreation year-round

Home to Oregon’s largest Ponderosa Pine (191-foot Big Tree), La Pine State Park is a beautiful overnight and day-use park.  There is a log cabin meeting hall, Fall River Falls, 12 miles of hiking trails and cross-country skiing plus the Big Deschutes River for kayaking, swimming, fishing and canoeing.

The interpretive hub for the Newberry National Volcanic Monument located at the base of Lava Butte. The visitor center includes a bookstore, educational films, a 3D map of the area and rangers on hand ready and willing to talk to about the geological wonders of Lava Lands and the expansive monument.

Right outside the visitor center, enjoy a self-guided tour of the 7,000 year old lava flow formed by Lava Butte’s eruption. There’s informational plaques throughout, including one that highlights a unique piece of American history: Astronauts trained there in 1966 to prepare for the upcoming moon landings.

You can hike up to the top of the butte for some amazing views of the surrounding area, but be careful because there’s  no trail. You have to walk up the road, which, at times, can be congested.

Take a self-guided, mile-long discovery tour of Oregon’s longest intact lava tube. Central Oregon’s unique geological landscape offers ample opportunity to step back into time, but the Lava River Cave gives visitors the chance to step down into time. Down 150 stairs to be exact. That’s how far below ground this 5,211 foot lava tube snakes through the Earth, giving you a chance to see (with the help of a lantern) a truly remarkable natural phenomenon.

Bring a coat! Even in the summer, the cave stays at roughly 42 degrees, which can be a bit chilly if you’re wearing shorts and a tank top.

Oregon's largest outdoor concert venue

Oregon’s largest outdoor concert venue shines along the Deschutes

Built in 2001 and named in honor of one of Central Oregon’s most successful entrepreneurs – you might have bought tires from one of his stores – the Les Schwab Amphitheater has quickly become one of the premiere venues in the Pacific Northwest to see live music.

Located in Bend’s historic Old Mill District, the LSA boasts an all-grass infield and scenic views of the Cascade Range along the Deschutes River. The largest outdoor concert venue in the state, the Amphitheater can hold approximately 8,000 concertgoers. The LSA has drawn living legends such as Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan, Paul Simon and Willie Nelson as well as artists who are shaping the sounds of their own generation like Jack Johnson, the Avett Brothers, The Roots and Brandi Carlile.

Nestled right in the heart of Bend, the Amphitheater also plays host to numerous community events. The Bend Brewfest is held every year at the Amphitheater during the third weekend of August and the classic Pole Pedal Paddle race – individuals and teams ski, bike, paddle and run their way from the Mt. Bachelor Ski Area into Bend – finishes in its infield. And in partnership with the North Pole, the Les Schwab Amphitheater welcomes Santa the day after Thanksgiving, providing landing ground for his helicopter before he is whisked away to SantaLand in the Old Mill District.

Here’s the Les Schwab Amphitheater’s 2019 summer concert lineup:

• Sunday, June 7: Jason Isbell + Father John Misty

Ouzel Guides Make all the Difference
Few river companies put as many resources into training, retraining and certification of their guide staff. Guides new to Ouzel must complete a competitive application and training process (regardless of their previous experience). Once training is complete, a long period of “apprenticeship” is required before being qualified to work. Returning guides are required to attend a 5-day training program where skills are refreshed, company standards re-iterated and new policies and procedures are introduced. Our guide staff are an extremely loyal and tight-knit group of professionals. With little turnover each year Ouzel maintains a high level of experience, tradition and teamwork. Our guides know our rivers, our trips and most importantly, our guests.
