Chewaucan Crossing Campground/Trailhead

US Forest Service · Oregon

Chewaucan Crossing Campground/Trailhead in Oregon. Ringed marker is this site; the other dots are the 790 public campsites we map in Oregon.

This highly used campground is ideally located right on the Chewaucan River, 20 minutes south of Paisley, Oregon. Chewaucan Crossing Trailhead within the campground accesses Fremont National Recreation Trail #160, a multi-use trail and a challenging trek in both directions as hikers must climb out of the river canyon. You can hike, mountain bike, or ride horseback north to Yamsay Mountain or south to Cox Pass. A pedestrian bridge crosses the river and links to the trail. There are many fishing opportunities for rainbow and brook trout.
