Sluice Box Access

Sluice Box Access is a popular put-in point for Class 3 float trips down the Klamath River to Seattle Creek, featuring a graded gravel road to the water's edge and a large parking area.

The site offers a portable toilet (seasonal), river map, interpretive panel, and information board, though water and garbage services are not available—bring your own water and pack out all trash.

Limited dispersed camping is permitted with a 14-day limit and no fee; a California Campfire Permit is required for any fires or camp stoves.
