Capital Forest has miles and miles of beautiful trails to ride, hike, and bike on. The east side has Mima TH and Margaret McKinney TH for horse access, these TH's have horse camps too. On the north side there is Falls Creek Horse Camp it has very nice accommodations too. To park at these locations you need a Discover Pass.
The trails are very well maintained and used by all user groups, bicycles have become very popular in the last 8 to 10 yrs. in this area, but all users are very kind to one another and work together to keep trails safe for all .
Several yrs. ago we stumbled on this enormous beaver pond, and it is quite the little treasure, it has grown exponentially since we first came upon it. It is a little off the beaten path, and one has to have some sense of adventure to even locate it, but it is very cool.
As you can see from the picture below the trails are dog friendly too, a must for us trail riders !! All trails for the most part on the east side of CapFor are very well maintained. Back Country Horsemen and Bicycle Clubs are very active in keeping the trails in shape.
Recently it was decided to keep a small Equine Loop open all yr. long to the horse people.
All other trail systems are open to horses only from April ~ Nov. 30th
Fall riding is full of beautiful colors ..
Very diverse riding too, beaver ponds, reprod, tall timber, ol' decommissioned log roads, it is always ever changing.
Beautiful places to ride, the west side of CapFor, used to be very popular too, but due to storm damage, the trails on that side have been let go, in the process of pushing to have those reopened and accessible again soon.
