Pearch Creek Campground

PEARCH CREEK CAMPGROUND

Part of Six Rivers National Forest

Overview

Pearch Creek Campground lies just north of the small town of Orleans in the Klamath river valley of the Six Rivers National Forest. Lush foliage provides welcome shade and relative privacy for each of the campground's sites.

Facilities

The campground offers several single-family campsites, suitable for both tent and RV-style camping. Each site has picnic tables and campfire rings with grills. Many have rock camp stoves as well. A vault toilet and drinking water are provided.

Natural Features

The campground is located in a mature Douglas fir and hardwood forest. The sound of nearby Pearch Creek can be heard from most sites and the campground remains shady and cool during hot summer days. Moss-covered rocks and tree trunks add to the cooling atmosphere of Pearch Creek.

Recreation

Salmon and steelhead fishing in the nearby Klamath River is considered some of the best in northern California. Both Kalamath and Salmon Rivers are popular destinations for whitewater rafting, swimming and kayaking. Both are within a short drive.
