Iron Mountain and the Cone Peak Trail are probably one of the best hikes for wildflowers in Central Oregon. Each year many Oregonians will hike to the top of Iron Mountain, or take the full Cone Peak loop to enjoy the flowers.  Experts state that most of Oregon's 300 + wildflower species can be located near Iron Mountain as well as over 17 species of trees. For those starting at the Tombstone parking lot, the entire hike exceeds 1900 feet of elevation gain in seven miles. The time of the hike will probably depend on how often hikers stop to check out the flowers and views, but most can complete the full loop, including the side hike up and back to the top of Iron Mountain, within 4 hours. The mountain was especially beautiful the end of June, 2024.
