Highlights

✦ The 10 best, verified — cross-checked against other published Klamath hiking guides, then mapped for actual drive time from RidgeWater Properties.

✦ Oregon’s longest linear park — the OC&E Woods Line State Trail runs roughly 100 miles from the Wiard Park trailhead, with 8 paved, family-friendly miles to start.

✦ Two worth the extra drive — the Upper Klamath National Wildlife Refuge and Collier Memorial State Park sit outside the usual radius but earn the trip.
