The Noonday Trail is a historic route that follows a former wagon road used by miners in the late 1800s. The trail is now a wide dirt road with no single-track sections, offering a scenic and non-technical ride that follows Champion Creek through a dense forest. The route begins with a hill climb from the trailhead before leveling off, featuring a mostly hard-packed surface with some rocky areas. This ride is best suited for beginners or those looking for a casual, scenic excursion.
This historic road is open to all types of off-road vehicles, so riders should expect to encounter ATVs, UTVs, and Jeeps. The trail is marked to help with navigation. While there are no developed facilities, dispersed camping is available in the surrounding national forest for those wishing to extend their stay. An Oregon OHV permit is required to ride.Dirt Bike Trail System
