Elk City
Here in the heart of the Nez Perce National Forest, we have 2.2 million acres for you to explore and enjoy, half of it wilderness. This is an area of unparalleled beauty and variety. Visit historic gold camps and stage stops, marvel at spectacular vistas, fish in pristine streams, camp beside mountain lakes, and photograph the abundant variety of wildlife. There are summer and winter trails for hiking, mountain biking, ATVing, and snowmobiling, for all skill levels. We have outfitters to guide you on your fishing and hunting trips if you need. Experience peace and serenity and old-fashioned friendliness.

Enjoy trout fishing in the South Fork of the Clearwater, Red River, Crooked River, Meadow Creek, American River, and back country lakes in Wilderness Areas. Take a day trip down to Salmon River and fish or swim. Unlimited outdoor hiking and camping. Just come and enjoy the forest. Enjoy ATV riding on designated trails and forest roads. Hunting and winter snowmobiling are fall and winter activities.

Do some hiking, camping and just relax in the outdoors - we enjoy the area and we think you would also.
