About
Sloway Campground is located off Interstate 90 in western Montana, 60 minutes west of Missoula and 15 minutes west of Superior. The fully paved campground offers 27 sites total in the shade of pine trees along the Clark Fork River. Sites 1-10 and 21-25 are reservable through Recreation.gov, while sites 11-20 and 26-27 operate on a first-come, first-served basis. The campground includes 12 pull-through sites that accommodate vehicles longer than 35 feet, making it big rig friendly.
Facilities include vault toilets, potable water, trash services, camp hosts, and two bear-proof storage containers. Each site has a parking space, picnic table, and fire ring. The campground features a day-use area with additional picnic tables, a sand volleyball court with net, and horseshoe pits. An equestrian site with a round pen and hitching post is available by reservation.
The campground sits flat in the valley bottom with the Clark Fork River to the south, providing a primitive boat launch for non-motorized watercraft including canoes, kayaks, rafts, and tubes. It serves as a convenient base for river recreation, particularly for accessing the Alberton Gorge downstream. Visitors should be aware that the location between Interstate 90 and an active rail line results in significant noise from highway traffic and passing trains.
