Kelsay Valley Trailhead Horse Camp

Kelsay Valley Trailhead Horse Camp is a nice campground located at the end of Forest Road 958. The location has a remote feeling but is still close to nearby attractions such as Lemon Lake. The North Umpqua Trail can be accessed from the campground and eventually connects with the Pacific Crest Trail for virtually unlimited hiking and equestrian opportunities.

There are 15 campsites at Kelsay Valley Horse Camp. Ten of the sites are designed specifically for those with horses as they include a horse corral in addition to the standard picnic table and fire pit. The remaining 5 sites don’t have horse corrals and therefore are open to regular campers.

There is a vault toilet within the campground, but no drinking water. Manure bins, wheelbarrows and shovels are also provided for those camping with horses. Campsites can be revered by visiting recreation.gov. Kelsay Valley is open seasonally, usually May through October.
