mountain bike trailhead. There is a separate ATV trailhead and trails |
Description - A 20 mile out and back to Lava Lake. In the beginning of the trail there was a lot of lava to ride over which was a blast, but then it went to very dry sandy conditions. At a different time of year I’m sure it would be better, but we didn’t go all the way to the lake because of the sand. Climbing in the sand sucks the life out of your legs. The scenery was beautiful as you’re out in the middle of nowhere. We turned around and had a sweet downhill run back to the car despite the sand… Loops -Just follow the signs to Lava Lake. There really is only one mtn bike trail. The rest is all ATV trails. The trail description is on the map “Mountain Biking in Central Oregon”. Pre-ride Music: |
