Map

The landscape is so surreal here that an Oregon-bound pioneer in the early 1800's described this area as the 'the Devil's Vomit'. Roughly the size of Rhode Island, these young lava flows are visible from space, and the Visitor's Center is replete with information and exhibits. The park offers interpretive programs/signage, and a 7 mile scenic loop drive. Among the lava formations beyond the visitor center, is a 52 site campground available on a first come first serve basis. Some of the amenities include water (except during off-season), restrooms, grills and picnic tables. There are no electric or water hookups at the campgrounds.
