Blueberry is a short, easy out-and-back hike in southern Oregon, about 1.2 miles from Klamath Falls. The trail is roughly 1.6 miles long, and the one-way elevation gain is about 150 feet, with the high point at 4,481 feet. The climb is gentle, with the steepest stretch at about 0.66 miles into the hike, a grade of about 6 percent, and the total round-trip gain and loss each come to about 208 feet. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 67°F and September highs around 77°F, with fewer wet days in late summer. That station sits about 400 feet below the trail, so temperatures on the hike run a bit cooler. The hike takes about half an hour. Several other trails start within a short distance, including Eulalona Trail and Hayride at about 0.1 mile and Stonehenge at about 0.2 mile. For climbing, Cougar Rock Boulders is about 5 miles away.
