Recreational Activities
Camping
 Corral Springs Campground is two miles north of Chemult on U.S. 97
then two miles west on Road 9774 (Corral Springs Road). Corral Springs
is situated in a lodgepole pine stand interspersed with small meadows.
Activities include hunting, mountain bike riding, wildlife and bird watching,
walking,picnicking and, of course, camping.
This is a rustic campground with few amenities. There is no fee for use of the area and sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis from mid-May to mid-October. There are 6 camp units that will accommodate tents, trailers, and RV combinations up to 50 feet. Vault toilets, picnic tables and fire rings are available for use within the campground. There is no garbage service. Please leave a clean campsite! Highway 97 closely follows the old Klamath Trail, which was the main route used by Indians and explorers as they traveled between the Columbia River and California. The springs are near the old trail and served these early travelers. In his early explorations of the American West, Captain John C. Fremont of the Corps of Topographical Engineers, followed the old Klamath Trail in December of 1843. He probably stayed overnight at Corral Springs. |
