Raab Campground opened Friday, 9/1, for fall camping. This provides late-season, rustic camping for local communities. Located on the Collawash River, campsites will be first-come, first-served and free to use. Services will be limited and camping is pack-in, pack-out.

Raab Campground is a larger campground and a popular location for hikers, anglers, bicyclists, and rafters/kayakers. Some campsites within Raab Campground suffered damage and won’t open to camping this fall; these sites will be signed and flagged until recreation staff can begin rehabilitation/repair. We ask campers to respect signs to allow for staff to make repairs.

Due to limited staffing, trash removal services will not be available. Please follow the “pack it in, pack it out” practice — anything brought into the forest should be packed out when you leave, including pet waste. Do NOT burn trash or food.

The Clackamas River corridor continues to consist mostly of day use recreation or dispersed/rustic camping with no services. Please remember: dispersed camping is not allowed along highways, including along Oregon Route 224.
