Rimrock Springs Trailhead sits within Crooked River National Grassland, managed by the US Forest Service east of campgrounds around Culver. Access is walk-in or hike-in only. The site pairs picnic tables with cell service and welcomes dogs. A 1.25-mile loop trail departs from the trailhead, reaching a viewpoint roughly halfway through that overlooks the wetlands below. Nearby, Crooked River National Grassland Dispersed near NF 89 offers a comparable grassland setting 1.2 miles southwest. The loop makes a reasonable stop for campers who want a short leg-stretcher built into their itinerary.
