Named for its nearby, now unused corral, the staging area provides year-round access to the Millican Plateau OHV trail system. A handful of trails converge at this lightly used location where one can lunch or disperse camp among picnic tables and fire rings scattered about the area. Camping is allowed; however, no restroom facilities or water are available.
The nearby high-voltage power lines service roads double as OHV trails—follow them as they cross the area. These transmission lines deliver hydroelectric generated energy at the Columbia River to the large markets of California.
From Prineville, Oregon: Head west on US-26 to the roundabout and take the third exit. Travel 0.4 miles and turn left onto the George Millican Highway. Proceed 13.2 miles south and watch for the Corral OHV Staging Area sign. Turn left and drive another 0.3 miles to the site.
