Selway River Road is a beautiful, non-technical, bumpy road winding its way along the early stages of the Wild and Scenic Selway River. This minimally maintained road sees usage almost every day from the lucky few who Raft the Selway River, so washboards and holes appear early in the season. Winding through the beautiful Clearwater National Forest, shade is plentiful, and snow lingers into early summer. Once it's dry, just about any vehicle can enjoy this scenic mountain drive.
There are many camping opportunities along the trail, including the developed Magruder Crossing Campground at the beginning and the Paradise Campground at the end. These campgrounds have designated sites, tables, fire rings, and bathrooms, but no water is available. Indian Creek and Raven Creek Campgrounds are located along the road as well, with minimal amenities. All of these incredible camping opportunities are free.
