Wind River Bridge

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Payette National Forest's Wind River Bridge sits at the end of a road marking the boundary of the Gospel Hump Wilderness, making it a functional base for hikers heading into the surrounding mountains. The original campground infrastructure has largely grown over, though restroom facilities remain in use by boaters, hikers, and campers alike. A sandy beach and boat launch add to the site's utility. Pets are welcome, and picnic tables are available. Campers wanting a more developed setup can find places to camp near Warren or check out Lookout Butte Lookout, located roughly 2 miles northeast.

Great Views

You can car camp here at the end of the road before you enter the Gospel Hump Wilderness. If you cross the Wind River Bridge, there are some great hiking opportunities up into the surrounding mountains. There used to be an actual campground here, but much of it has grown up. There are still restroom facilities that are used for boaters, hikers, and campers. There is also a great sandy beach here and a boat launch.
