WILD ROGUE
Welcome to North Umpqua Wild and Scenic River!
This North Umpqua Wild and Scenic River Corridor is known for its stunning forest setting with the
emerald green waters of the North Umpqua running right through the heart of it. Nestled amongst
old-growth trees, one can relax at Susan Creek Campground, take a hike along the river on the 1.5
mile long Emerald Trail or stroll up the short trail to 50’ tall Susan Creek Falls. Anglers from across
the country, flock to the North Umpqua to fly-fish for the elusive salmon and steelhead. The 79-mile
long North Umpqua Trail is perfect for longer distance hikes and mountain bike excursions.
