Devils Orchard

Giant chunks of crater-wall rock and twisted limber pines scattered across the lava plain. A paved loop trail with interpretive signs makes it a good outing for the whole family.

Devils Orchard is an “archipelago” of huge cinder blocks carried from North Crater by lava flows. Stunted, twisted limber pines and sagebrush grow among the blocks, and dead wood and dark rock create an unusual landscape. The paved loop is about 0.8 km long and wheelchair accessible. Interpretive signs along the way explain the volcanic landforms and the impact of human activity on the reserve. Allow about 30 minutes.
