The route

What the walk involves

Check the Forest Service's Wagner Butte Trail 1011 page for the current trailhead, distance and route. This is a mountain ascent southwest of Ashland; the directory deliberately does not convert a trail listing into an unverified round-trip number.

On the ground

What makes this trail distinct

A higher Siskiyou setting and climb toward Wagner Butte make it more demanding than a city trail. Confirm access roads and forest alerts, carry water, and account for the descent.

Access and preparation

Before you set out

Carry water and check the mountain trailhead road and forest alerts before heading out.
