Natural areas along this route require an entrance fee used to protect and maintain our most scenic treasures. Save time by purchasing your forest passes before you go.
This is a user-recommended drive that leaves from Joseph and heads down OR-351 along the great Wallowa Lake. Moments after the lake, turn onto Marina Drive for the Wallowa Lake State Park (H1) which provides access to the lake and hiking opportunities. The park also features the Wallowa Lake Tramway (A1) gondola that brings you to the top of the mountain for an amazing view of Wallowa Lake and the Wallowa Mountains.
Continuing on OR-351, you will soon reach the end of the highway. Park your car and enjoy a walk through the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, where you will find several lakes, waterfalls, and plenty of nature and popular fishing spot. There is also a monument dedicated to Old Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce tribe. Use the same scenic route to head back to Joseph.
