This trail runs from the Bottle Prairie Trailhead in the south to the Knebal Springs Campground trailhead in the north. It can be ridden either way. Because the trail is a little more flowy than its sister trail, Knebal Springs Trail #474, it might be favorable to ride down this one when combining the trails for the Knebal Springs Loop. <br><br>Be sure to stop at Perry Point at the top of the initial climb to get in some good views of Central Oregon before you start the descent to the bottom.<br><br>Towards the bottom of this trail, the trail drops sharply into a creek crossing. This signals you're almost to the Knebal Springs Campground.<br><br>The trail crosses several forest roads, but the trail is also signed extremely well with new, easy-to-follow signs. It's hard to get lost.
Forest opened up a little bit for a view.
This is but one of many beautiful meadows along this trail system. Perfect photo opportunity.
