Overview

The Magruder Corridor Trail is a very accessible trail for most vehicles that takes you into the scenic and remote wilderness. It is on many people’s bucket list due to the fact that this is the only place in the lower 48 where you can be in the middle of 5 million acres of wilderness. There is history at every corner with plenty of information along the way and available from the ranger districts at each end. You can see first hand how a forest regrows after a burn, there have been many big forest fires over the past few decades that have swept through the area, and you get the chance to drive directly through that area. Most of the areas have a healthy regrowth already and the burnt trees offer a beautiful contrast to the greenery and wildflowers when they are blooming.
