Farm Well Horse Camp / Trailhead

Farm Well Horse Camp is located along the Fremont National Recreation Trail, and serves as a jumping off point for trail users, and campers, alike. Farm Well offers five campsites, picnic tables, camp fire rings, one vaulted toilet, horse corrals, and room to maneuver a horse trailer. The forest-mountain setting affords views of basin and range land as well as vistas of Hager Mountain and Winter Rim. The cone-shaped single peak dominates the landscape and the look-out tower is visible atop the 7,200 foot pinnacle. Wildlife that frequents the area surrounding Farm Well and connecting trails include deer, elk, songbirds, and numerous species of raptors. It's about a three mile ride from Farm Well to the Hager Mountain Lookout. This summit rewards riders with a panoramic view, including the Cascades to the west and Mount Shasta to the south. You can keep riding to Thompson Reservoir (five more miles), a popular fishing destination. Trout are stocked in the reservoir on a regular basis. This reservoir was created in 1921 and provides water for more than 2,700 acres of irrigated land. There is no potable water on site, however, two ponds provide water for stock.
