Route description

OR 31 runs in a northwest-southeast direction, but is signed north-south. The northern terminus of the highway is at an intersection with U.S. Route 97 near the town of La Pine. From there, the highway heads east then southeast, passing nearby several natural attractions such as Fort Rock State Natural Area, Hole-in-the-Ground and Summer Lake. Near the southern end of Lake Abert, and north of Lakeview, the highway ends at an intersection with U.S. Route 395. A previous routing from a 1916 map shows the highway's northern terminus near Millican on US 20, proceeding down USFS Road 25, then OR 18 through Fort Rock through Silver Lake.
The highway is a 2-lane, rural road for its entire length.
