This is the Happy Trails Cowboy Campground Mascot

This is my big boy's prospective wife.
What is she going to do? Send me back to lockup? (You heard me.)
Stables provided for the campers and equestrians. Vice nice and enjoyable relaxed people.


Great for practical horsepersons who enjoy just the practical necessities needed for horsemanship. Nothing really fansy. Here is a practical tack room.

The leisurely trails are pretty cool along the Williamson River. You can bring your carriage and travel the back roads. Overnight camping is available. Here is a trail. I could get lost even if I had compasses and GPS systems. Maybe that's why we rode next to the power lines?

Just a decorative ornament. Although the dining chuck wagon was scrumptious. Meals are available at reasonable costs.
The Famous OC&E Woods Line State Trail November 13, 2006
Built on the old railbed of the Oregon, California, and Eastern railroad, the OC&E Woods Line State Trail is a 100 mile long linear park, incorporating all of the original trestles and the double switchback near Sprague River.
It begins at Washburn Way in Klamath Falls with 8 miles of paved trail extending to Olene, suitable for walking, bicycling, and skating . A wood chip trail for jogging and horse-back riding parallels the paved trail. In winter parts of the trail are suitable for cross-country skiing.

The trail continues in a less improved state east to Bly and then north to the Sycan Marsh, traveling through beautiful and historic farm, ranch and national forest lands. It is the perfect place for mountain bikers, hikers and wildlife watchers .

There are not alot of rules to abide by other than, please don't litter, and try to becareful when approaching horses and riders. Some horses spook and are not use to bicycles! The riders should try to stay to the side and beware at all times of kids on bikes!

Bring appropriate clothing for weather. During the summer, it can be in the 70-80's, and unfortunately, there are not alot of trees to sit under during the long walk on the paved trail.
Camping is available 19 miles north along the Woods Line Spur at Horse Glade trailhead. Please follow all trail regulations and trail etiquette.
