Trail Overview

Round About is an easy SxS trail for vehicles 65 inches or less in the Mount Emily Recreation Area that makes a 1.4-mile-long loop, accessed by Crampton Road. The trail is a bit overgrown with grass and primitive in areas, but still has enough tracks that drivers should be able to follow the loop. It goes through a flat forested terrain, with constant curves through the trees, sometimes sharp and sometimes gradual. It will feel a bit narrow through the trees at times, with tight tree gaps and skinny lodgepole pines closely lining the trail. The track is mostly just dirt and grass, with very few rocks, and was cleared of any fallen timber, as this is a well-maintained trail system.

Access Description

The Mount Emily Recreation Area (MERA) is located on Foxhill Road, north of the town of La Grande, Oregon. The road to access the staging area is a graded dirt road, but it has a 17% grade, so be prepared for a steep climb up to the parking area. There is a large staging area and campground at the south end of the trail system. This trail system accesses several SxS trails for vehicles 65 inches or less, plus single-track and 4x4 trails, and allows two-way traffic, and is well-marked and family-friendly. There is a youth riding area with a kids' track south of the staging area.
