I visited on 4/20/18 Awesome park with a great view The staff I met were awesome. Friendly, helpful, and proffesional. I felt safe hiking the trail from the office to the summit and found the trail to be a very enjoyable hike Clean bathrooms and a picnic area is a the top.

Nice trails and a scenic drive to the top. Check out Luther Rock for a dramatic view. There are smaller viewpoints around the summit that make for nice pictures.

Nice park to get some good exercise and views. The park rangers are super nice and the park is kept clean. Take the red circle trail from the bottom to the top (takes a little over an HR).

Mount Jefferson towers over the towns of Jefferson and West Jefferson. The state natural area protects the mountain and the road leading to near the summit. On my last visit, several years ago, all the trails were up near the summit. Since then, they built a trail from the park office at the base of the mountain that follows the road up to the summit. So I had to hike up this time. The trail hits the overlooks, either directly or following a spur trail, so you still get to see all the overlooks along the road. It was really foggy on my last visit, so nothing really to see, but on a clear day, the views are fantastic. The road ends at the picnic area and a short trail leads the rest of the way to the summit. There's a radio tower and weather station here, but you don't get much in the way of views. (There is really good cell signal up here though!) Continuing on Rhododendron Trail leads to Luther Rock, a subpeak of the mountain that has great views. It's smaller than a state park, but this natural area has some great trails and overlooks and is definitely worth a visit.
