Queets Campground

About this site

Queets Campground is one of Olympic National Park's most secluded and peaceful camping destinations, nestled along the banks of the Queets River in the park's southwestern corner. Due to a past mudslide that permanently closed the lower access route, the campground can only be reached via Upper Queets Road, which connects to Road 21 off Highway 101. The campground features 20 first-come, first-served sites surrounded by old-growth forest and the sounds of the free-flowing Queets River, which supports one of the most productive salmon runs in the country. Each site includes a fire grate and picnic table. The Queets area is part of a largely intact watershed ecosystem, offering excellent opportunities for solitude, wildlife viewing, and hiking along the Queets River Trail. Visitors should come prepared for a primitive camping experience. The campground has vault toilets but no potable water, so campers must bring all drinking water. The remote location and lack of services make this an ideal destination for experienced campers seeking a genuine wilderness experience within Olympic National Park. Additional Info: 20 first-come, first-served sites. Accessible only via Upper Queets Road due to mudslide. No potable water available. Sites suitable for tents and small vehicles.
