Camping at Alder Springs near Blue River

Public campground · Blue River · 1 campsite

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

While Alder Springs itself is a single-site, low-key stopping point, it sits within the recreation-rich Willamette National Forest, where opportunities extend well beyond the campsite. The surrounding forested landscape supports biking and hiking, fishing and boating, picnicking, wildlife viewing, winter sports and swimming in appropriate areas, and facilities and routes for off-highway vehicles and horse camping; the forest also contains fire lookouts and cabins that can be used overnight.
