Pierce Riffle Park

Pierce Riffle Park is a 23-acre park in southern Oregon, about 3.8 miles from the town of Rogue River. The land is managed by the state fish and wildlife agency, and the park sits within its own small parcel rather than a larger forest or recreation area. For the most comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from the nearby Grants Pass weather station show May highs around 74°F with about nine wet days, and September highs around 84°F with only four. Midsummer is hotter, with July and August highs typically near 91°F, while winter months bring frequent rain. The Rogue River Greenway Trail is the closest neighbor at about 1.6 miles away. Skycrest and Madrone, both around 4.4 miles out, add more hiking options, and the Rogue River fishing area lies about 4.6 miles away.
