About Oakridge Trail
This backcountry route leads into the floodplain forest, where the path can be hard to follow and a GPS unit is considered necessary. Its far end meets the Kingsnake Trail and the Weston Lake Trail, so hikers can extend a day or loop back. Expect a quiet, remote walk among tall hardwoods and cypress trees.
