About this campground

Discover the tranquil beauty of Orogrande Campground #1 and #2, where the gentle waters of Crooked River create a natural sanctuary for outdoor enthusiasts. This beloved local retreat offers two distinct camping experiences: immerse yourself in the riverside section with its sprawling grassy meadows perfect for pitching your tent to the sound of flowing water, or choose the intimate non-river section ideal for families and small groups seeking a more secluded atmosphere. Both areas come equipped with essential amenities including fire rings for evening gatherings, convenient restroom facilities, and at least three established camp pads that make setting up camp a breeze.
Orogrande Campground #1 and #2 offers basic camping options, including camp pads near the river and on the opposite side of the road.

Weather and SeasonsEarly season adventurers will find crisp mountain mornings greeting them during Week 1, with temperatures dancing between a brisk 17°F at dawn and a refreshing 31°F by afternoon. The sky plays host to a gentle parade of clouds, maintaining a pleasant 35.8% cloud cover that creates stunning sunrise and sunset displays. Winter's touch remains present with a 27.98% chance of snow dusting the landscape in pristine white, while rain stays largely at bay with only a 1.68% probability. Moderate breezes sweep through the dry mountain air, and with sunrise painting the sky at 8:17 AM and sunset casting golden hues at 5:27 PM, you'll enjoy nearly 9 hours of daylight to explore and unwind.

Natural Features and SceneryNestled within the majestic embrace of the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forest, this campground showcases nature's artistry at every turn. The star attraction is undoubtedly the Crooked River, whose meandering waters create a soothing soundtrack for your camping experience while reflecting the surrounding forest canopy. On one side, the river's edge invites quiet contemplation and perhaps a bit of fishing, while the opposite side opens into inviting grassy meadows where wildflowers dance in the breeze during warmer months. This harmonious blend of flowing water, verdant clearings, and towering forest creates an idyllic backdrop for everything from family adventures to peaceful solo retreats.
Geological RegionSet within the breathtaking Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests, this campground occupies a special corner of Idaho's wilderness where ancient geological forces have carved out a perfect camping destination. The Crooked River, true to its name, winds gracefully alongside the campground, its path shaped by millennia of patient erosion through the forested landscape. The surrounding terrain showcases the region's diverse topography, from dense coniferous forests that whisper stories of the ages to open grassy expanses that provide windows to expansive mountain vistas. This unique combination of riverine and forest ecosystems creates a rich tapestry of natural habitats that support abundant wildlife and offer endless opportunities for nature observation.
