About
Klahowya Campground offers 64 well-spaced campsites nestled in a second-growth rainforest along the scenic Sol Duc River. Located 20 miles northeast of Forks on US Highway 101 near milepost 212, this Olympic National Forest campground provides a peaceful retreat with the sounds of the river and towering conifers. Facilities include potable water from faucets, both flush and vault toilets, fire rings and picnic tables at each site, and trash collection. The campground accommodates tents, trailers up to 30 feet at most sites, with some sites handling vehicles up to 40 feet. An accessible 0.3-mile interpretive nature trail called Pioneer Path winds through the forest, and an amphitheater hosts ranger programs during summer months. Recreational opportunities include fishing in the Sol Duc River and summer tubing or floating between day-use areas when water levels are low. The campground operates seasonally from May through September on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted. Payment of $17 per night is made at the on-site fee machine.
