Site Description: Located along the banks of the Chilliwack River this 28 site campground is unique as it offers two distinct areas - one provides 24 camping sites in the main campground with 4 camping sites in the large Staging Area.

The Staging Area is perfect for off-loading motorbikes and ATVs and allows ample parking for large rigs. It accesses the Bear Cub Beginner's Riding Loop which is designed to provide a safe learning field for the novice rider. There is a 100 cc engine restriction, but adults are able to accompany the youth rider. This trail is also a designated hiking trail and users are encouraged to respect others along this multi-use trail. The Staging Area also provides access to the well-known Chipmunk motorcycle and ATV trail networks.

This is a cash only site. For reservations, additional information and updates pleas visit www.chilliwackvalleycampsites.ca. or email: thurstonmeadows@yahoo.ca or call 604-824-0576. Rapids Staging area is now also reserved up to 50%.
