Silver Falls Group Site

Overview

Silver Falls Group Campground sits in forested, mountain terrain on the banks of the Entiat River in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest in the Entiat Ranger District.

The cascading water of Silver Falls is a draw for many visitors to this particular area, which is especially refreshing in the summer heat. The Silver Falls National Recreation Trail is an exceptional family hike taking you up, around and down the falls. Panoramic views of the surrounding mountains await you on the hike.Recreation

Silver Falls Campground is a great base camp for a variety of outdoor recreational activities.

Anglers enjoy casting a line into the Entiat River above Entiat Falls, about 2.5 miles up-river from the campground. Carving through a wide, U-shaped valley, the river is dominated by relatively shallow riffles interspersed with pools, plunge pools and glides where the trout fishing is quite good. Populations of rainbow, cutthroat and eastern brook trout are found in this tributary. Selective gear rules apply to fishing in the Entiat River. See Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife for fishing rules and regulations.

Silver Falls National Recreation Trail offers a 1.8 mile hike next to one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the region. The trail winds along Silver Creek to the base of the falls, through towering canopies of cedar and pine. The handcrafted stone staircase and bridges along this trail offer stopping points and panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. The Silver Falls Trail is an exceptional family hike taking you up, around and down the falls. The elevation gain is approximately 600 feet.
