Three Trails OHV System

Friday, May 17, 2024

Other Names

Deschutes National Forest, Crescent Ranger District, Litte Walker Mountain, Rivers South Staging Area, Boundary Springs, Two Rivers

Last Known StatusOpen

This part of the Deschutes National Forest offers a trail system with over 60 miles of designated motorized trails. The area offers a wide range of loops to explore that range from tight and twisty motorcycle trails to smooth and fast 4x4 roads.

The trails wind though a mixed pine tree forest with some high desert vegetation that consists of sage and various scrub brush. The trails are maintained and bridges have been recently added over most of the water crossings. Those with street legal machines can expore the trails located north that tie into Muttonchop and Rivers North Area.

Camping is permitted at the staging area but is primitive. The trails close seasonally during the winter months. For current conditions check the trail hotline before heading out.
