Smith Rock State Park offers a scenic flat-water section of the Crooked River featuring dramatic volcanic cliffs and welded tuff formations, making it an ideal rest area during Class IV-V whitewater runs.

The park provides day-use access (permit required), first-come camping, hiking trails, and is a world-renowned rock climbing destination.

Located 3 miles east of Highway 97 near Terrebonne, Oregon, the park includes amenities such as showers for overnight guests, toilets, and a Welcome Center, with a footbridge crossing the river that may require portaging at high flows above 3,500 cfs.
