Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights1 site open for every nightA forested campground near trout fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups.
" The river here is central to the experience anglers come for steelhead, rainbow and cutthroat trout and rafters launch from the campground's boat ramp to float calmer stretches near the town of Salmon or to tackle more challenging whitewater farther west. The landscape around the campground changes quickly from river corridor to steep outcrops of Precambrian quartzite some of the oldest rock in Idaho and nearby day-use areas such as Tower Pyramids display hoodoo-like sandstone and capstone formations.








Length limits vary by campsite.
Not listed — confirm before booking: Max RV length isn't listed.
