🍂🥾 Join me for a scenic 3 mile out and back hike along the river trail at **Smith Rock followed by a food truck lunch in Redmond at Blacksmith Public House!**

With cooler temperatures, this is an especially popular destination! There are amazing views of rock climbers. 🧗‍♂️ 🧗‍♀️ 🧗 This will be an easy-going pace with stops to watch the rock climbers along the trail and take in the beauty. The River Trail is flat, but there is a steep section that takes you to the footbridge that leads to the trail head!
