Single track trails, that have great views of Brice Creek, steep punchy climbs and downhills, rocks, roots, twists and turns, and even a gorgeous waterfall! The trail is 5.5 miles long one way, so if you did an out and back you would get 11 miles in. You could add another two to three miles (highly recommend) to see the falls for at least 13 miles. You could also cut off a mile or so and see the falls for a 12-mile run. Just a note that there is little to no cell service when you get near Brice Creek, so you may want to screenshot directions.

Directions:

From Cottage Grove, OR, travel east on Row River Road 2400 for 19 miles to Forest Road 2470. Turn right on County Road 2470 and continue for 4 miles along Brice Creek to Cedar Creek Campground, located on the left side of the road.
