Rainbow Bridge Campground

Rainbow Bridge is a popular backcountry campground in the Stehekin Valley area of Lake Chelan National Recreation Area, accessible via the Rainbow Creek Trail from Stehekin Valley Road.

A backcountry permit is required for overnight stays, and the camp was affected by the 2010 Rainbow Bridge Fire with potential hazards from snags and falling trees.

This remote site offers a scenic hiking destination as part of the popular Rainbow-McAlester loop backpack route.
