Camas Prairie Region

Camas Prairie Region




The 200,000-acre Camas Prairie is named for the blue-flowered camas bulb. The Nez Perce Indians still harvest this root that once provided food during the difficult winter months.

Mile after mile of golden crops swaying gently in the breeze provide a foundation for the sunsets that often set the horizon aglow and silhouette the mountains in the far-off distance. Wintertime can turn this prairie into a sparkling, snow-white blanket as far as the eye can see.

Take time to explore the towns of the Camas Prairie - Grangeville, Cottonwood, Nezperce, Craigmont, and Winchester - and enjoy your visit through this land of wide-open spaces and old-fashioned hospitality.
