About this campground
Buckhorn Campground is a small rustic campground situated at 5,260 feet elevation in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, just below the ridgeline near Buckhorn Tower Viewpoint. The campground is nestled in the trees and offers a primitive camping experience with basic amenities including vault toilets and picnic tables at each site. No potable water is available, so campers must bring their own supply. The campground operates from June through September and is not maintained during the off-season. This free, first-come, first-served site is popular with summer campers looking for a quiet mountain retreat and fall hunters accessing the surrounding forest.
