Trail Information

Highlights

Reiter Foothills Forest is a 4x4 Recreation area with trails designated for 4x4's, ATV's and motorcycles. There are 8.6 miles of trails for 4x4 use, with about twice that amount in the planning stages. Reiter is noted for its quality rock crawling trails, and they are rated 9-10 for sure. But there are other trails like this one that is more moderate with lots of tight twists, stumps, and roots to keep things interesting. Although Deer Flats trail is just over a mile long, its many twists and turns make it feel much longer once you reach the end.

This trail was awesome. We ended up randomly making some friends at the trail head, a couple overland 4 runners and we did the trail together. The trail was super windy and had to back up a bit to make some turns. (I have the long wheel base option of the Tacoma.) But with a slight lift and rock sliders this trail was no problem. There is a fun hill climb and the log bridge is legendary. Beautiful scenic area.

Really enjoyed this trail, it is full of twists and turns and I loved the log bridge at the end.
