How many days/miles are you interested in? Overnight or hub and spoke? Dirt or Paved?

The backside of Klamath Lake between Fort Klamath and Rocky Point is nice. Kimball Creek is a pretty spot near Fort Klamath.

Sprague River Road between Chiloquin and Sprague River and Silver Lake Road from Klamath Marsh to Silver Lake are alright too. Down on the California side, Tule Lake and the Lava Beds are interesting and there are many loop options. There's lots of migrating waterfowl in the spring months. There's some paved roads around the Lake of the Woods and Howard Prairie that get very little use. The highways across the Cascades are good, but I'd avoid riding on Hwy 97 as much as possible and also avoid Hwy 140 between K-Falls and Lake of the Woods.

Some of the roads are chip seal so a 28 width tire or wider is nice to have.

The Aufderheide and McKenzie Pass north of Crater Lake are very nice. Century Drive south of Bend is very scenic also.

My in-laws live in K-Falls so I know something of the area. Feel free to send me a PM if you want me share anything more about the roads in the K-Falls area. I've ridden a lot of the roads down there.


As Andrew mentioned, be prepared for mosquitoes while in the Cascades
