You have 2 loop options. Long or short. At the trailhead, It's best to grab the small booklet for a self guided tour of POIs along the trail. It's graded as "easy". Some points will have you scrambling over a few rocks. No need...Read More

Incredible historical site just sitting out here in the literal middle of nowhere. Very minimal approach which treats the subject with dignity. I feel like the US army filled in the lava tubes after the Modocs were expelled, feel like they should try restoring...Read More

Really cool hike, but its long and hot as heck so bring sunscreen and water! Very informative, and there's even pamphlets near the parking are that help you understand the history. If you are trying to find Big Painted Cave, it's quite a hike, and...Read More

A visit and hike through this well documented site greatly expanded our knowledge of the Modoc conflict. The trail is well marked, easy to navigate and loaded with information. The rock formations, blended with the historical markers, made the time spent on the...Read More

Nice, pretty easy trail to hike on, with some very neat rock structures and terrain changes. We went when it was very smokey due to wildfires, but even then it was neat. Saw some deer hiding in the rocks as well which was fun!

The coolest fort ever! A natural lava fortress that protected the rebel natives for the winter in the 1800s until the army cut their water supply. If it weren't for that they could still be there fighting. 🤔 …

This is part of the Lava Beds National Monument where the last of the Native Americans held out against the Calvary. It was an interesting hike, not very difficult, but hard to follow the trail. It only took us about 45 minutes to hike the...Read More

This is a historical site. The guide books provided at the trail head enhance the 3 mile hike. You can imagine the Modoc Indians fighting for their survival, only to be overwhelmed by the US Army. The lava beds have unique geographic terrain that...Read More
