The Salmon Pass Trail is located in the southern part of the Headwaters Forest Reserve, and is accessable only through BLM led guided hikes.

 

The first ½ mile passes through a young to mid-aged forest with views of restored watershed areas. The next 2 miles ascend through the old-growth redwood forest with a view across Salmon Creek to the largest stand of Douglas-fir within the Reserve. The trail then loops back as it descends through the old-growth. This hike is considered moderately strenuous and takes 3 to 4 hours.
