Irish-Taylor Trailhead

Overview

Tucked away in stands of pine within the Cascades of Central Oregon, the Irish and Taylor Lakes area is lovely and often quieter than other, more easily accessible lakes on the forest. This area has hiking, dispersed camping, fishing, and water recreation opportunities. Mosquitoes are plentiful here - be prepared! Visitors will first pass Taylor Lake on the left and Irish Lake second, on the right. This trailhead accesses the Pacific Crest Trail , which goes along the west shore of Irish Lake. Please note: It's recommended that visitors only access this area using a 4x4 high clearance vehicles. FS Road 4636 leading to the lakes past Little Cultus Lake is extremely rough. The Irish-Taylor Trailhead leads to the Three Sisters Wilderness shortly after leaving the trailhead. Wilderness Permits are required. See "Permit Info" below for more details.
