The Little Deschutes River is a tributary of the Deschutes River, approximately 50 miles (80 km), in central Oregon in the United States. It drains a scenic rural area of the High Desert on the east side of the Cascade Range south of Bend. It rises in the high Cascades in the Mount Thielsen Wilderness in northwestern Klamath County, approximately 20 miles (32 km) north of Crater Lake. It flows generally NNE down from the mountains through the Winema National Forest, roughly following U.S. Highway 97 past La Pine. It joins the Deschutes from the south approximately 20 miles (32 km) south of Bend in southern Deschutes County.
