We would like to hike 4 to 8 miles next to the Rogue. Can anyone tell us where to park to be hiking with a steady view of the river. Some place not too far (less than 10 miles) from Merlin or Galice would be good.

hiking on Rogue River trail
Hi, travelbug---
Okay, please forgive my informality regarding directions but here goes:
I%26#39;ve hiked this particular trail twice now and loved it! Keep driving west through Merlin and then Galice-several miles past Galice-the roadway goes through beautiful canyon until it comes to the river.
There is a trailhead on either side of the river-I really like the first one you come to-right before the bridge over the river on the left side of the road is a very small pullout. The trail starts there. If you go across the bridge, it ends up at a huge parking lot where alot of rafters put in. Like I said, I really like the first one you come to because it%26#39;s on a shadier side of the Rogue and more scenic. You can hike a few miles as far as you like-I think it%26#39;s just a few miles to a falls in the river and lots of rafting action. Have fun-it%26#39;s a great hike!! Oh, and views of the Rogue all the way.
