Consisting of more than 3.2 million acres of land spread across three different forests, the Idaho Panhandle National Forests are home to more than half of the state's surface waters. Visitors can enjoy almost every kind of water recreational activity imaginable, and most of the developed campgrounds in the forests can be found on the lakeshore or beside one of the many streams. If you're looking for a more isolated camping experience, dispersed camping is permitted in many different areas of the park, and the Forest Service offices are happy to provide information about the best spots to set up camp.
