The cinder cone lies north of Mount Jefferson and to the northeast of Olallie Lake. Olallie Butte can be reached from Oregon Route 22 by following Breitenbush Road to the Olallie Lake Guard Station, then continuing on the main road along the transmission line. A trail to the summit of the mountain and a station runs for about from a trail marker located past a clearing on the main road; trucks cannot continue past this point.
