Oregon hiking trails - Reservation Trail, Central Cascade Range, Jefferson County

   
  Unfortunately, there are no directions to the trailhead, no trail maps Says Lisa

Oregon has lots of outdoors things to do. There are plenty of wilderness hiking trails in Oregon; each one of them is different from the others. Backpacking here in Oregon is always a fun thing to do. Even though this is not a very long backcountry trail you should still bring some emergency supplies just in case something happens. A lengthy drive parts Bend from Reservation Trail, but it is a nice shelter from the city. Don’t forget to check for any current restrictions
    or closures before you go. This is one of a very small number of backpacking trails in this vicinity. Reservation Trail has two trailheads, so backpacking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. Wonderful wilderness hiking trails in Oregon are in abundance,
and Reservation Trail in Jefferson County is one of them. Reservation Trail is a normal length wilderness hiking trail with an average amount of climbing distance which makes it a nice backpacking trail for the average person looking for a nice adventure. The wilderness hiking trails of the Central Cascade Range are a really perfect way to spend quality time in the fresh air. Reservation Trail has a total elevation difference of 1,940 feet, and that is about average. Reservation Trail is 4.8 miles long it's an average length hiking trail. At Reservation  
Trail through the summer highs are in the 70's with nighttime lows in the 40's. The wintertime brings highs down to the 30's while the cold winter nights at Reservation Trail are in the 20's. All the water falling down from the sky makes Reservation Trail a wet site; December is the month that gets the most rain, and the driest month of the year is July. Some parts of this hiking trail are much higher up than other parts of the hiking trail, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. The time needed for this trek is roughly 4.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. Sometimes this backcountry trail gets really dry, so make sure you check current conditions and fire restrictions with local forest authorities before you head out. Gotta get out of the city man, and Reservation Trail in Jefferson County, Oregon is just the place.

Briefly about the general area:
Some of the water nearby flows, like Street Creek, and Beachkomb Spring is a delightful place to check out while you're at Reservation Trail.
