Take I-84 to the Echo/Lexington Exit 193; turn left at the stop sign. Follow the signs to Echo—about 4 miles. Turn right at the first stop sign in Echo (right turn without stopping), go ¼ mile and turn left—over the RR tracks and into downtown ECHO…Stay on the main drag through Echo (there is no sign to downtown, but it\'s left on Main Street, the road toward Lexington), cross the Umatilla River and Westland Irrigation Canal (total distance is about 1 mile) until you reach the top of the hill---turn left on Snow Road (gravel). The total distance from downtown ECHO to Snow Rd is about one mile. Go left (south) on Snow Rd for about 1.6 miles until you come to a WINDMILL on your left—turn left on the gravel road next to the WINDMILL (east). Follow this gravel road for about 0.7 miles (there will be several rock pits on the right and a pheasant hunting club sign on your left) and at the bottom of the hill, turn right through the gate. The parking lot is here and the Trail Signs are up and easily visible (A Trail).
Description: Classic dessert single track in Eastern Oregon. Near Original Oregon Trail site. Trail is ride able almost all year round. Maintained by Echo Hills Trail builders an IMBA club.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by cyklemekanic on January 30, 2010
Good singletrack loop with lots of medium and advanced technical sections. Lots of up and down, no long sustained climbs, but if you peg it, the trail will definitely give you a good workout. Your not likely to run into a lot of people out there so it's a good place to get away. There are some rough and rocky sections so be prepared for just about anything.
