Round Mountain North Trailhead the Forest Service's write-up

This is a free facility. · reservation required

This trailhead is located near Walton Lake and provides easy access to the northern end of Round Mountain Trail (#805) . The site has a large parking area that will accommodate vehicles of most sizes. Additionally, it is just a short distance down a dirt road which comes off of Forest Service Road 22, so the majority of the drive is on pavement.

Restrictions This is a Day-Use only facility.  No overnight camping is permitted at trailheads or Sno-Parks on the Ochoco National Forest or Crooked River National Grassland.

About this trail's facts

The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
