Booth State Scenic Corridor

Booth State Scenic Corridor is a 318-acre area covered with dense conifer forests of ponderosa pine and western juniper along Oregon Route 140 west of Lakeview. The park offers picnic tables, vault toilets, and parking spaces for day visitors exploring the wooded landscape.

Robert A. Booth, president of Oregon Land and Live Stock Company, donated the initial 50 acres in 1928 to establish this corridor. During the 1930s, the Civilian Conservation Corps expanded the infrastructure and added more facilities to the original land contribution.

The Civilian Conservation Corps shaped the place during the 1930s by building picnic areas and gathering spots. These developments changed how people in the region spend time outdoors and enjoy nature together.

The place is easily accessible along Oregon Route 140 with free parking available during the day. It is wise to check what facilities are available before your visit, as access and amenities may vary by season.

The forest is home to mule deer, coyotes, and cougars that visitors may glimpse while exploring attentively. In fall, quaking aspen trees turn brilliant yellow and red, transforming the whole corridor with changing colors throughout the season.
