Trail Overview
South Huckleberry2 Trail offers an exciting, moderately challenging forest adventure for ATV riders, dirt bikers, and narrow SxS drivers looking to climb deep into the scenic woodlands of northeastern Washington. Spanning approximately 6.1 miles, this point-to-point trail serves as a continuation of the South Huckleberry Trail, taking riders through dense stands of pine and fir with steady elevation gains up to a maximum height of 3,789 feet. Because the route features tight clearance and limited width, full-size four-wheel-drive vehicles cannot access this trail. Navigating the dirt and gravel track requires solid technical control, especially on the steeper, rocky slopes where loose stones and a steep grade can challenge your traction.
Riders should be fully prepared for backcountry conditions, as the heavy forest canopy means the trail is frequently littered with windfall. Carrying appropriate clearing gear such as chainsaws, axes, or bucksaws is highly recommended to handle any downed trees blocking the path. The technical difficulty is rated a moderate 5 out of 10, meaning riders will encounter some uneven terrain, off-camber sections, and rock obstacles that demand careful line choice. With over 1,530 feet of climbing, the trail offers sweeping peek-a-boo views of the surrounding Kettle River Range and nearby Dollar Mountain, making it an excellent seasonal ride from late spring through fall before winter snows close the high-country routes.
