Recreational Activities
SO
MUCH TO DO & SEE
Want to kick back and relax under shady pines by
a sparkling lake? Looking for a "base camp" for
a day of hiking, rock climbing, boating, fishing,
or swimming? Want to just get out of the house for
the
day for a nice picnic in the great outdoors? If so,
the Rogue River - Siskiyou National Forest can offer you that and
more!
Offering nearly two million acres for your enjoyment,
relaxation, and exploration, you can experience the
solitude of the wilderness or enjoy camping near
others in developed campgrounds. Camp in densely
forested woodlands or open meadows, discover secluded
flats along river banks and enjoy panoramic views
of majestic mountains.

FOREST RULES FOR VISITORS
As a visitor to the National Forests, you are asked
to follow certain rules designed to protect the Forests
and the natural environment, to ensure the health
and safety of visitors, and to promote pleasant and
rewarding outdoor recreation experiences for all
visitors.
HELP US PROTECT YOUR FORESTS
Please preserve and protect your National Forests.
To do this, try to leave natural areas the way you
find them, by practicing "Leave
No Trace" conservation ethics. Do not carve,
chop, cut and damage any live trees. They have done
nothing to deserve this treatment, and damaged trees
cheapen the natural experience for others. Try to
leave your camp or picnic site a little cleaner than
you found it; the next visitor will thank you.
There are campgrounds on the Rogue River - Siskiyou
National Forest that use the Pack it In, Pack it
Out program
for
dealing with waste. This means that garbage cans
are not provided. Campers are asked to bring their
own garbage bags and take their garbage with them
when leaving the campsite. While this seems like
an inconvenience, the funds saved are used to provide
additional recreational facilities. Do not bury litter;
forest animals can smell it and will dig it up.
