Summary
A self-issuing permit is required for Rogue River use. There are no toilets, water, hookups, or RV access—campers must pack in/out everything. Fire rings may be found at some sites, but it’s best to bring your own fire pan; picnic tables are not available. Set in a scenic, forested river canyon, it’s ideal for solitude, fishing, and river-based activities. Access is typically by boat or hiking. The best time to visit is late spring through early fall when river conditions and weather are most favorable.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
