Route Description for North Umpqua River Hike
If you want to experience the rigors of the North Umpqua Trail, but aren’t keen on hiking a one-way route, then the North Umpqua River Trail is the perfect route to explore.
Setting out from the edge of National Forest Development Road 4776, you will head northeast on Clearwater Plant Road as it skirts the edge of Toketee Lake. Keeping left at the junction, you will cross over both the North Umpqua River and NF-34 in order to pick up the trail.

Eventually, the route will turn to the northwest, continuing alongside the North Umpqua River at an elevated position. At this point you will be hiking along the 127.1 km long North Umpqua Trail, so feel free to turn back at any point to return to the trailhead.
