Oregon Caves National Monument
RV & Travel Trailer Parking

Travel trailers and large RVs are not recommended beyond Grayback campground (mile post 12) due to the winding road to the monument.

Park your RV or Travel Trailer

If you have a large RV or travel trailer, they must be parked (free) at the Illinois Valley Visitor Center (IVVC) in Cave Junction which is located on Hwy 46 at 201 Caves Highway, Cave Junction, OR 97523. This is just a short distance from Hwy 199 intersection in Cave Junction. Call (541) 592-4076 for more information.

There are also two campgrounds located on Highway 46 that will accommodate recreational vehicles and trailers overnight. These are Country Hills Resort (privately owned) and Grayback Campground (National Forest campground), both located on Highway 46.

This snail was named after an employee of Oregon Cave, not because he was slow but because he wrote the technical description of the snail.  

Did You Know?
There is a snail that lives on the marble rock outcrops of Oregon Caves that has adapted to use the calcium from the rock to make its shell.
