EXPLORING THE EPIC Metolius River Forested Shoreline in Central Oregon 4K!
This was a day-hike in Central Oregon, Deschutes National Forest, Metolius River National Recreation Area, starting at Lower Bridge Campground Parking at Lower Bridge and first exploring the East side of Metolius River to Pioneer Ford Campground for the first little part of the hike as a small segment Out and Back. The bulk of the hike was after crossing the bridge to the trailhead for West Metolius River Trail to Candle Creek Campground (WITH CAMPSITE REVIEW VIDEOS - BEST SITES - #6, #5, #4 in that order) as a 3.2 miles Out and Back with miles of epic shoreline hiking and a minor amount of elevation gain making it mostly a flat hike. The elevation starts around 2800 FT and stays in a range of up to 3000 FT, at such low elevation it allows this hike to be done in the end of Winter (late Feb and forward) as far as snow melt and road access. The sky was overcast and it sprinkled a little bit. This was hiked on 4/28/2022, and there were of course NO Mosquitoes. As far as road conditions, it's highway to the turn off for the Camp Sherman area which is a well paved road until the parking lot, so it was a very easy and safe driving route. In my opinion, the road most definitely DOES NOT require 4-Wheel Drive, however do watch for road conditions, particularly snow/ice depending on the time of year.
