Knife Edge Access

Knife Edge Access provides free, walk-in river access to the Lochsa River with a small five-site campground located 11. 6 miles east of Lowell on Highway 12.

The site offers basic amenities including picnic tables, fire rings, a vault restroom, and a changing room, accommodating RVs up to 40 feet, though sites fill quickly during rafting season (May-June) and potable water is not available.

This is an ideal launch point for kayakers, floaters, and anglers, though winter access may be restricted by snow.
