Table Rock Fork, Molalla River
Winter view of the Wild and Scenic Table Rock Fork of the Molalla River, March 5, 2019 by Greg Shine, BLM.
On March 12, 2019, President Trump signed into law the John D. Dingell Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act (also known as the Dingell Act), a comprehensive public land management bill with over 170 separate sections that affect almost every state in the nation.
Among the spectacular new additions to the National Landscape Conservation System in Oregon was the addition of the Table Rock Fork of the Molalla River to the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System.
A scenic drive along the Table Rock Fork provides stunning views, access to two riverfront day-use picnic areas, and access to the Table Rock Wilderness.
Just downstream, the Molalla River Recreation Area is located approximately 10 miles southeast of Molalla in Clackamas County. From the town of Molalla, drive east on Main St/OR 211. Veer right at the OR 211/Mathias Road intersection, follow signs for Feyrer Park. Once past Feyrer Park, cross over the Molalla River, turn right, and follow signs for Dickey Prairie Rd. Continue south on Dickey Prairie Rd, keeping the Dickey Prairie Store on your left. At 3.7 miles past the store, turn right on Molalla Forest Rd and cross Glen Avon Bridge.
The Molalla River Trail System is an extensive network of more than 20 miles of trails for hikers, bicyclists and equestrians. The system combines both single track trails and old forest roads. The trails wind through the forested foothills and slopes of the Molalla River Valley, occasionally offering scenic glimpses of the forests and mountains of the Cascade Range.
The system offers a variety of difficulty levels for a wide range of mountain biking, hiking and horseback riding enthusiasts. Trails are generally marked with directional signs and levels of difficulty. The best equestrian access to the trail system is from Hardy Creek or Annie’s Cabin Trailheads where there is ample parking for horse trailers. Mountain bikers and hikers may prefer to access the trail system via Amanda’s, AmeriCorps, and Sandquist ’s Trailheads.
