Britenbush River Dispersed

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

A short drive down a gravel road off the main corridor brings campers to dispersed spots along the Breitenbush River, managed by the US Forest Service within Willamette National Forest. Sites accommodate rigs up to 15 feet. Reviewers note a swimming hole and cliff-jumping area, though at least one visit turned up trash and a notable amount of poison ivy along the riverbank. Campers planning a longer stay in the region can find places to camp near Detroit to compare options. Pack in, pack out, and come ready to share the road.

Magical

down a little road to a private spot on the water, you can hear the creek rushing, the waterfall flowing and it drowns out the traffic noise. Super magical! A nice swimming hole, fire pit and plenty of room for multiple people, cars, vans etc. please leave no trace and bury your shitttttt!
