| | Hiking and backpacking trails for backcountry hiking, and backpacking can be found all over Oregon, and Grass Mountain Trail is one of them, and it's in Lane County. Grass Mountain Trail is not very close to Eugene-Springfield at all, but It's always enjoyable to backcountry walk here. Every Oregon backpacking trail has something unique to offer. This is one of a very small number of great outdoors trails in this area. Here in the splendid state of Oregon backcountry hiking is the splendid thing to do. This part of Oregon is always a diversion to check |
|
out during backcountry trekking season. This backpacking and hiking trail is not that long but you should still bring some emergency supplies just in case something happens. You should count on this backcountry trek taking about 1 hours, but of course some people walk a bit slower
| | and some a bit faster. Being 1.2 miles long it's shorter than many backcountry trails. The backcountry trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time, so you get pretty much the same conditions along the whole backcountry trail. This hiking trail is on the short side having an average number of uphill miles which makes it a great great outdoors trail for the average person looking for a great adventure. During the summertime months highs here at Grass Mountain Trail get into the 80's. When the night sets in temperatures descend down into | |
|
the 50's. For the duration of the winter the highs are typically in the 40's while Grass Mountain Trail night low temperatures during the winter are in the 30's. This trail has a total elevation difference of 341 feet, and that is lower than average. Grass Mountain Trail gets a
lot of water; the month of November is the wettest with most of the rain, and the driest of the months is July. Grass Mountain Trail is a two ended trail with two trailheads, so backcountry trekking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. Backpacking and hiking
trails like this one here in the Central Cascade Range are a really pleasant way to spend quality time in the wilderness. This region does get very dry sometimes, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go. Please follow all local rules about fires
and camping. Finally, backcountry backpacking time is here again, and Grass Mountain Trail in Lane County, Oregon is a brilliant choice.
Briefly about the general area:
You truly must have a thing about the Central Cascade Range. Oakridge Mobile Home Park is a delightful local campground, and Errin Campground is a great campground nearby.
