Lesser Park


May 2, 2024

Lesser Park, located in southern Oregon, is a beautiful destination that offers a variety of outdoor activities and stunning natural scenery. The park is situated between the Cascade Mountains and the Coastal Range, making it an ideal spot for hiking, camping, fishing, and wildlife watching.

One of the main attractions in Lesser Park is the Rogue River, which runs through the park and offers excellent fishing opportunities for salmon and steelhead. The river is also popular for rafting and kayaking, and there are several outfitters in the area that offer guided trips.

Visitors to Lesser Park can also explore the many hiking trails that wind through the park's forests and along the river. The trails range in difficulty from easy to strenuous, and offer stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.

Other points of interest in Lesser Park include the historic Wolf Creek Inn, which dates back to the late 1800s, and the nearby town of Grants Pass, which offers a variety of shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions.

Interesting facts about Lesser Park include its designation as a National Wild and Scenic River, and its status as one of the last remaining strongholds for threatened salmon and steelhead populations in the Pacific Northwest.

The best time of year to visit Lesser Park depends on the activities you're interested in. Summer offers the warmest weather and the best fishing, while fall is a great time to see the changing colors of the leaves and enjoy cooler temperatures. Winter provides opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing, and spring is a great time to see wildflowers in bloom.
