Trail Description

 E-bikes NOT allowed on Summit

The Summit Trail is a newer trail on the back side of Smith Rock State Park which connects Wolf Tree, Burma Road and the River Trail into a large loop. Most often ridden from Burma Road down to the River Trail — it has quite a few low speed switchbacks that will test your bike handling skills.

Part of the trail passes through private property so please stay on the trail and show some Trail Love!

      Riding perfect. A few puddles along the river trail.

        Summit Trail is excellent this November. I rode past Burma Rd all the way to Gray Butte. No mud if you leave early. There are patches of very packed and rideable snow.

      There are a few shaded sections with enough mud to splatter your bike and clothes. But they aren’t very deep nor long. The trail is in great shape overall.

      Trail is riding well!
      A couple of spots where there’s a bit of snow on the side of the trail making for some thin lines.

      Super fun as the switchback were just a little pebbley and it was easy to get the rear end a little loose.

      Perfect, no dust, great tread, lots of flowers. Watch for rattlesnakes though…

      All hard pack/hero dirt/frozen ground on the climb up… Only one part was hike a bike due to un-ridable snow. Otherwise the trail was awesome today…
