Trail Overview
This route transports travelers from Highway 26 north of Prineville Oregon into the middle of the Ochoco National Forest. Along the way you'll find yourself navigating well-groomed forest service roads, fairly narrow and rocky road surfaces and a few small obstacles. You'll be rewarded with wonderful views of the forest and surrounding area as well as plenty of dispersed camping opportunities.This is a two-way road. Most of the way provides enough width for two vehicles to pass slowly in either direction. However there is a good amount of tree-lined sections that are wide enough for only one vehicle at a time. Obstacles like rocky surfaces, low hanging trees, small avoidable drop-offs and smaller seasonal mud pits are minimal, but there are a few spots that will require some attention and a high-clearance 4x4. There is little to no cell service so please be sure to download maps to your mobile device.
