Trail Overview

This route will take you from Upper Lake all the way to Eel River/Lake Pillsbury. It begins with great views of the valley, plenty of camping and resting spots in-between, and ends with your choice of the river or lake to take a dip in before calling it a day. Would not recommend attempting the motorcycle trail portion with an adventure motorcycle during or after a rain. You won't find any cell phone reception past the initial twenty minutes, so make sure you have your onX Offroad maps downloaded.
