Oregon Camp Grounds
Oregon has numerous campsites which can be found at state parks, area campgrounds and along its trails. However, to make the most of your trip it is wise to be well prepared. Whenever possible, reserve your campsite in advance by contacting 1-800-452-5687 or reserving your place through www.oregonstateparks.org –this way you are certain to have a place to stay.
All of Oregon’s state park campsites include picnic tables
and a fire ring/BBQ or camp stove—however, if you are in
a hiking/biking area, this is not provided. Outdoor lovers
shouldn't overlook all the great hiking
