Wilderness areas provide opportunities to find solitude and natural beauty as well as protect important habitat for many species of animal and plant life. 

The Fremont National Recreation Trail, also known as the Southern Oregon Intertie Trail, traverses most of the length of the Fremont National Forest from north to south.
