Information
The road along Brownlee, Oxbow and Hells Canyon Reservoirs only gives a hint at the spectacular view that is to come at Hells Canyon Dam. If you plan this drive, consider adding a float trip offered by one of Idaho's many licensed outfitters. It is the best way to experience the towering cliffs of black and green basalt that form the walls of this famous canyon. From Cambridge to Hells Canyon Dam the road is about 40 miles with 22 miles of it narrow and winding. Full services are available in Cambridge and only partial services available along the route. While RVs can handle the paved road, turnarounds are few and there are tight right-angle turns at Hells Canyon Dam. There are campgrounds at all three reservoirs.
