Reaching Race Creek Campground requires about an hour of driving on a rough gravel road with frequent potholes, so low-clearance vehicles should plan accordingly. The campground sits near a river within Nezperce National Forest, managed by the US Forest Service, and pets are not permitted. The area draws ATV riders and recreational shooters, which affects the noise environment. Cell service is limited. Selway Falls Campground is roughly half a mile away for campers wanting a nearby alternative.
Description
Three camp sites on the Upper Selway River. Boat put-in below Selway Falls. A trailhead at the campground goes east along the Selway River, providing access to the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness. Stock facilities are available for equestrians. The wild and scenic section of the Selway contains Class IV rapids and runs from Paradise Campground to Selway Falls. Very difficult for persons with disabilities to access.
