Description: 4,200-foot elevation. 36 campsites under the cottonwood and
juniper trees near the Donner und Blitzen Wild and Scenic River. This
campground was named for a series of springs which flows through the
area. The rock bluffs above the campground were formed by lava and
ash flows. Many types of warblers, raptors, and other birds nest at
or migrate through Page Springs. Bighorn sheep live in the northeastern end of Steens Mountain, and you can see a wild horse herd on the
southwest end of the loop road.
Rattlesnakes, ticks, and stinging nettles can be found near the
river, particularly in summer months. River is difficult to cross in
early spring. The road is also great for mountain biking. Other attractions nearby
include birdwatching at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and
rockhounding at the Diamond Craters lava beds. Fees are charged from
April-October. All fees collected are returned to the site for improvements, facility maintenance, and visitor services as part of
the Pilot Fee Demonstration Program. Hiking or horse riding in the area.
