About

Nineteen Mile Campground is a small, remote campground located along the scenic Chiwawa River in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Situated 22 miles from Lake Wenatchee in a forested valley setting, the campground offers 4 campsites on a first-come, first-served basis with direct river access for fishing and water activities. The campground's remote location means limited amenities but provides a peaceful escape into nature. Sites can be paid for using the Recreation.gov mobile app's Scan and Pay feature, though cellular service may be limited. An extra vehicle fee of $10 per night applies. Access requires driving the Chiwawa River Road, with the final 10-mile section being very rough gravel and dirt road that may not be suitable for low clearance vehicles. The rugged access road and primitive setting make this campground ideal for experienced campers seeking solitude along a pristine mountain river.
