The North Umpqua Trail: Mott Segment is a beautiful stretch of the 127.1 km long North Umpqua Trail that will lead you along the edge of a winding river. While out on the trail, you will enjoy quintessential Pacific Northwest scenery, as you hike along the banks of the North Umpqua River and relax in the great outdoors. If you aren’t planning on camping along the trail, be sure to arrange a pick up or plan for a return hike, as this is a one way trail.

Route Description for North Umpqua Trail: Mott Segment

Featuring lovely forest views and little in the way of elevation gain, the North Umpqua Trail: Mott Segment is a fun route to explore if you feel like meandering along the edge of a serene river.

Setting out from the trailhead, you will make your way to the northeast along the North Umpqua Trail, making sure to keep the river on your left. Here, you will enjoy beautiful views across the flowing water to the peaceful forest on the opposite bank.
