Score beautiful views of the North Fork of the Willamette River.
The North Fork Trail runs along the banks of North Fork of the Willamette River through a narrow river valley. You'll enjoy stunning river views along the entire length of this route!
The trail starts off easy and smooth from the trailhead, but after about 3 miles it gets quite a bit rougher, more technical, and more challenge. This more technical portion of the trail continues for an additional 8 miles. However, the route mapped here turns around at Alpine Road instead, for a simple 10-mile out-and-back route.
Beyond Alpine Road, not only is the trail continuously rough, but it's much less maintained than the first 5 or so miles. But if you're in for an adventure, continue on!
Since the North Fork trail is at such a low elevation, it stays accessible and snow-free most of the year. While conditions can get wet in the winter, the rocky trail bed drains very well, making it a popular escape for locals even during the depths of winter.
