Trail News & Information

 

Support Hot Springs Rim Trail

Klamath Trails Alliance is supporting the proposed Hot Springs Rim Trail. We want to give commuters the chance to step right out their back door and take off on the trails.

The Hot Springs Rim Trail is a proposed pedestrian and mountain biking trail designed to provide recreation and commuting opportunities for working professionals, families, students, and health-conscious individuals in the Hot Springs, Oregon Tech, and Sky Lakes Medical Center area.

This trail would replace many of the unauthorized and unmaintained trails in the area. The new trail would reduce long-term impacts on the landscape. And it would be a place people can walk to Klamath’s great vistas, or give commuters an alternative to a busy roadway.

Supporters of the Hot Spring Rim Trail are presenting to the Klamath Falls City Council. We need supporters to attend to show how important this is to the community. Come join us to support trails!
