18.5 miles of hiking • 1250' elevation gain •
We searched for something that would be quiet and snow free over Labor day weekend and were super happy with this hike. We started at the Lower Bridge campground TH on the Metolius river. It's just past all the car camping. We hiked for about 3 mile along the river on fisherman's trail's and then scrambled up to the closed dirt road. Which was actually mostly soft and had great river views alternating with shade. Several campgrounds, but we liked the one at 4.5 miles along the road best. Of course it was a bit further in with wandering. At 7 miles there is a small private property patch with a super cute lemonade stand unfortunately closed. A wonderful trip
