    Tips

    April 21, 2026

    The Simpson River Trail, along its entire course, stays close and follows the Simpson River. There are some sections of forests here that have been burned by wildfires, but the trail is seriously beautiful. With great lookout points of the river and plenty of healthy forest, this trail is not exceptionally steep; instead, it's a steady, gentle grade up to Surprise Creek Campground, where Simpson River Trail ends and branches into three different new trails.
