Wahtum Lake Campground
Wahtum Lake Campground is in the Mt. Hood National Forest just east of the Mark O. Hatfield Wilderness.
Beautiful Wahtum Lake has rewarding fishing for rainbow trout. Hikers can explore local trails such as the Eagle Creek Trail, Rainy Wahtum Trail, and the Pacific Crest Trail. The 2017 Eagle Creek Fire may have impacted some of these trails, so check with rangers before setting out.
Wahtum Lake Campground has 5 tents-only campsites. A short trail and steps lead down to the lake from the campground. There is no drinking water in the campground.
