Non-Motorized Trails
 
Trails in the Tillamook State Forest are managed for a range of recreation uses. Sixty-five miles of non-motorized trails provide options for the hiker, mountain biker and horseback rider.
 
Climb to the top of King’s Mountain for a remarkable view. Set out with your horse to explore part of the original Wilson River Wagon Road. Hop on your mountain bike for a great ride on the Gales Creek Trail.
