White Rabbit is a moderate out-and-back hike in southern Oregon, about 2 miles from Ashland. The route is roughly 2.9 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 1,154 feet, and it reaches a high point of 3,223 feet. The climb is steepest near the 0.8-mile mark, where the grade reaches about 21 percent. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically late spring and early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Ashland show May highs around 71°F and September highs around 81°F, while July and August average in the upper 80s. That station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the higher ground run cooler. The hike takes about 1.5 hours. The Oredsen-Todd Woods Trail starts just 0.2 miles away, and the Talent Irrigation Path is about 0.8 miles off. Climbers can head to Poison Oak Wall, about 4 miles away, and paddlers can try Walker Creek, about 5 miles away.
