Klahowya Campground

Adjacent to the south shore of the Sol Duc River, the rain forest setting hosts an accessible interpretive nature trail, fishing, picnicking, and trails to explore the natural beauty.

During the summer when the river is low water, there is tubing or float run between the 'Day Use' areas next to Sites 9 and 45. Interpretive programs may be presented in the amphitheater during the summer season.
