Swinging Bridge Campground

Swinging Bridge is a primitive state fishing access site along the Stillwater River near Columbus, Montana, offering a few tent and RV camping sites with vault toilets and a 7-day stay limit.

The narrow, single-lane dirt road is challenging for larger rigs but leads to well-spaced, secluded campsites with fire rings and picnic tables along the fast-moving water.

Note: The site was temporarily closed as of June 2022 due to flood damage and unsafe access roads; verify current status before visiting.
