About this place

This small, high-elevation 10 site campground sits at 5,300 feet at the far southeast end of the district, surrounded by fine stands of silver, grand, and noble fir. Be prepared for mosquitoes from July through August. Summer recreation includes hiking, viewing, horseback riding, fishing, and camping. The Timpanogas Basin offers 23 miles of hiking trails with excellent views of Diamond Peak, Sawtooth, and Cowhorn Mountains. Winter recreation offers many marked snowmobile routes and a shelter across the lake, as well as spring cross-country skiing. Timpanogas Lake is the headwaters of the Middle Fork of the Willamette River. Only non-motorized boating is allowed, and anglers typically have success with cutthroat and brook trout.
