Madrona Trail is an easy hike in southern Oregon, about a mile from the community of Provolt. The trail is a short out-and-back that climbs roughly 376 feet from a starting point near 1,260 feet to a high point of about 1,432 feet, with the steepest stretch coming around the 1.1-mile mark. The round trip is about 2.5 miles, and the trip is estimated to take about an hour. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Ruch show May highs around 75°F and September highs around 85°F, while July and August average in the low 90s. Pine Tree Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and Bricker Creek Trail and Forestfarm Trail are both within about half a mile. Paddlers can reach Williams Creek, about 1.9 miles off, for canoeing.
