Malheur Ford Trailhead the Forest Service's write-up
A small site with vault toilet and picnic facilities in the Malheur Wild and Scenic River is a popular place to fly fish, those looking to hike are within steps of the Malheur River Trail .
This quiet site is a light use site, it does tend to get busier during late summer for big game hunting seasons.
The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
