About
Located along the Bear Creek riparian area at the northern edge of the Eagle Cap Wilderness in the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, Boundary Campground offers 8 tent-only campsites in a rustic, peaceful setting. Two of the sites are ADA accessible. The campground is situated along Bear Creek, providing opportunities for fishing, picnicking, and family camping. The nearby Bear Creek Trailhead offers access to the Eagle Cap Wilderness for hiking and horseback riding adventures. This is a primitive campground with vault toilets and no potable water available. Campers must bring their own water or be prepared to treat water from natural sources. Each campsite includes a picnic table and fire pit. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis at $10 per night, with a self-service fee station on-site. Quiet hours are enforced from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Access to the campground requires driving on gravel forest roads. Campers with stock animals must use campsites located west of the road. All visitors planning to enter the Eagle Cap Wilderness must obtain a free self-issued Wilderness Visitor Permit at the trailhead. The campground is located in Wallowa County and is managed by the Wallowa Mountains Office in Joseph, Oregon.
