Ortega Trail
Featured Trail Near Ojai, CA!This rugged motorcycle trail winds through thick vegetation and offers panoramic mountain and canyon views. The trail is geared for the advanced rider due to loose chunk rock, narrow switchbacks plus steep climbs and descents.
There are two access points but the northern entrance (Cherry Creek Road) is gated and is seasonally open between August 1 through December 15. Visitors should note that Cherry Creek Road is rough and should only be attempted with a high clearance vehicle (RVs not recommended).
The southern trailhead has a very small parking area (enough for one compact vehicle) but is only open from May through the November 1.
Camping is available at Wheeler Gorge and Holiday Group campgrounds. Both campgrounds do not have direct trail access but are recommended for those with street legal motorcycles (the southern trailhead is located about one mile north past the campgrounds). A primitive campsite can be found about five miles in on the trail.
This trail may temporarily close during inclement weather so check with the Ojai Ranger District before heading out. Be sure to say thanks to the Ojai Valley Dirt Riders for maintaining this trail.
