| | I've seen the Volcano Trail on old maps but I didn't know it still existed. Part of it has been bypassed by logging roads. I believe it went to the old blowout shelter and the suspension bridge that is still there. Says J. D. Adams
We all need to get out in nature once in a while, and Volcano Trail in Linn County, Oregon is a really brilliant site to spend some time. This part of Oregon is always a pleasure to pop by during backcountry backpacking season. Here in the glorious state of Oregon backcountry backpacking is always a cool thing to do. |

There are not too many great outdoors hiking trails in this region. Volcano Trail gets a large amount of water; most of the rain falls through December while July is regularly the driest month. Oregon has plenty of glorious backpacking trails, and Volcano Trail in Linn County is
| | one of them. Volcano Trail is 2.8 miles long it's shorter than many wilderness trails. There's not much difference in elevation along the wilderness trail, so you get pretty much the same conditions along the whole wilderness trail. This wilderness trail has two trailheads, so backcountry hiking it one way is an option if you can arrange for a ride back. The time needed for this backcountry trek is roughly 2.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that.
