Big Creek Meadows Campground

With only three sites, Big Creek Meadows Campground may be small, but it offers access to big time adventure. Gloriously muddy offroad trails await in the North Fork John Day Wilderness for two and four-wheeled vehicles. Heck, why not one-wheelers too? Make off-road unicycling a thing! Whatever your ride, there’s plenty of space to park at the trailhead, which also offers access to some amazing backpacking. Sorry though folks, no potable water or trash here, so come prepared to stay hydrated and pack it out. Winter snows often make this site inaccessible during the off-season, so be sure to check the website for up-to-date info. Check website for closures. Tip: Fill up on wild huckleberries in mid-August, which flourish in this area that time of year.
