Description:
METOLIUS RIVER TRAIL #2 EAST TO WEST LOOP- This hike is 6.3 miles with 190' elevation gain. Starting at the Wizard Falls Fish hatchery, the Metolius River appears out of the ground at the Head of the Metolius River. The water is from the Cascades to the west, which soaks into porous volcanic soil and comes to the surface because of the fault that created Green Ridge to the east. This hike provides a good view of the river. The trail generally follows along the edge of the river with good views of it. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 2- 3 hrs to complete. Best hiked March thru Nov
