Description​:

​Shotgun Creek Recreation area is the perfect place to go when the weather isn't great but you still want to get out into the woods. This popular recreation area is open year round, however in the winter season there are very few people here. There are multiple trailheads along the upper parking area, which are all short paths creating short or longer loops. If you are wanting to do an extremely short hike, feel free to start at one of these trailheads, however even the entire Shotgun Creek loop is only 5 miles long.

Beautiful woods at the Shotgun Creek recreation area
From here you head up the hill for 1 mile. This mile is fairly steep as the trail switchbacks 5 times. The top of the ridge is a bit inconspicuous in the sense that you don't really realize that you're at the summit of Drury Ridge except that the trail all of a sudden heads back down the hill. The top is rather dark, and there are a lot of tree stumps from huge old growth trees that were once there. From here the trail meanders downhill for another mile. Here you will enjoy a more open and sparse forest with southern exposure, so on sunny days you can enjoy some rays. After 1 mile you will come to a T junction. To the right is the Tiki trail which will lead you 0.6 miles back to the previous Drury Ridge junction, then you could hike the 0.3 miles down to the parking lot. Or you can continue to the left on Tiki trail and take the 0.7 mile trail back down to the parking lot, finishing the loop. ​

The Tiki trail to the left switchbacks down the hill. During this 0.7 mile section of the trail you will see a few smaller creeks flowing down to join Shotgun Creek. The view you see of Shotgun Creek from the trail above is pretty neat, because you can really see how the creek winds through the landscape. Tiki trail comes out at Lower Shotgun trail, which is right next to the bridge at the beginning of the parking area.

Shotgun Creek Loop is a great hike to do for any age and experience level. It is a perfect short day hike for the winter season since it is very close to Eugene and with such limited daylight hours it can be tough to get a hike in during the winter months. Even during the fall and winter when this area is not regularly maintained, the trails are still well groomed and are a very easy surface to walk on. They can become a bit muddy during the rainy season though.
