 Driving Directions

The Molalla Recreation Corridor is about 10 to 15 miles south-east of the town of Molalla, Oregon, in the western foothills of the Cascade Range mountains.  NOTE: Due to the high canyon walls, cell phones do NOT usually work in the Molalla River corridor, and GPS reception is unreliable in some areas. The region consists of old logging roads, so automated maps (including Google Maps, Mapquest and GPS devices) may not work very well. These map links will assist you, but please plan ahead.

  • Overview map of the Corridor
     
  • Molalla to Feyrer Park (Google Maps)
    2.5 miles; about 6 minutes by car. The park entrance is on the left, immediately before the bridge.
     
  • Molalla to Hardy Creek Trailhead (Google Maps)
    13 miles; about 30 minutes by car. This route via Feyrer Park and along Dickey Prairie Road is correct, unlike the default Google Maps directions that stay entirely on the west side of the river.

For more information on how you can join the fun, please contact us.
