Trail Overview
Creighton Valley is a very easy and well maintained route that exits Highway 6 just after Lumby and then merges back onto highway 6 past Cherryville. It is a scenic route with a number of side routes to navigate. There are a lot of ranchers and rural residents. The road is wide, fairly smooth with some minor potholes and wash boarding. It travels along a few lakes including Echo Lake, which has a beautiful country resort with boating, fishing, paddle boarding, and kayaking. There are hiking trails throughout the area as well.
