Moore Mountain

Walking, hiking, mountain biking and trail running are all popular, complimented by expansive views of Upper Klamath Lake and the Cascade Mountain peaks.
Klamath Geo Trail
Constructed in 2016 as a community initiative, this 2 mile-long recreational trail was aptly named due to a nearby geothermal plant generating the geothermal energy used to heat Oregon Tech and Sky Lakes.
Enjoy an opportunity for relaxation with stunning views.
Brown Mountain
Discover a network of trails on Brown Mountain, including the High Lakes Trail (a groomed trail that extends around the mountain for those looking for technical adventures) and Rye Spur (a hidden gem that tops out on a rocky, scenic outcrop, making it the perfect out and back hike or mountain bike loop).
