About
Bonney Crossing Campground is located on Badger Creek at the foot of the Badger Creek Wilderness in Mount Hood National Forest. This quiet, moderately-used campground serves as an eastern portal to the Badger Creek Wilderness and provides direct access to the Badger Creek Trail. The campground appeals to campers seeking fishing opportunities along the creek, hiking into the wilderness, or horseback riding on designated trails. The campground offers basic amenities including vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire pits at each site, but no potable water is available. Campers must bring their own water supply. The sites accommodate smaller vehicles only, with a maximum length of 16 feet. All mechanized vehicles, including mountain bikes and game carts, are prohibited within the wilderness area. Access requires traveling on forest roads west from Wamic, Oregon, via Roads 48, 4810, 4811, and 2710. The campground operates seasonally and is closed during winter months. Free self-issued wilderness permits are required from May 15 to October 15 when entering the Badger Creek Wilderness.
