Metzler Park Campground

Metzler Park is located along scenic Clear Creek southeast of Portland and 5 miles south of Estacada. The park is operated by Clackamas County Parks. Visitors to the park enjoy fishing in Clear Creek, hiking on 2.5 miles of trails, and watching for wildlife such as mountain beavers and chipmunks. A foot path leads over a suspension bridge across the creek. Swimming in the creek is fun when water levels are safe. Sports fields and horseshoes are found in the park.

Clear Creek winds along the side of the park. Reservations must be made for a minimum of 3 nights.
