Rackliff Campground

Rackliff Campground is a small, rustic 6-site campground along the Selway River in Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests offering direct river access for fishing and a footbridge crossing Rackliff Creek.

Basic amenities include vault toilets and picnic areas, but no drinking water is available; the campground operates first-come, first-served at $8/night (May 12-September 30) and serves as a trailhead for Rackliff Ridge Trail #702.

Access is via Forest Road 223 (approximately 9 miles southeast of US Highway 12 near Kooskia), though winter access may be limited by snow.
