Scenically located along the banks of the north fork of the Hughes River, North Bend State Park has two campgrounds where nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts can set up camp to enjoy a wonderful wilderness getaway. The campgrounds are open from around mid-April to October and some sites offer electric and water hook-up while others just have the usual fire pit and picnic table for visitors wanting a more back-to-nature camping experience. You can have hours of fun fishing at the lake or launch your boat or kayak – rentals are available on site. Hiking and biking are popular activities in the park, especially along the almost-level 72-mile North Bend Rail Trail, and there is an abundance of wildlife to observe.
