Recreation
Besides generating clean, renewable hydropower, our Clark Fork and Spokane River Projects provide abundant recreational opportunities. They are surrounded by thousands of acres of land that offer outdoor recreational activities such as boating, camping, fishing, bird watching, swimming, hiking, and more.
The Clark Fork River and Spokane River are generally open to the public and accessible from both land and water for day-use recreational activities. As you enjoy the many activities this area has to offer, please play it safe above and below a dam and obey all posted warning signs.
Plan your next day trip along the Clark Fork River or Spokane River.
The Nine Mile Recreation Area includes a designated Slow/No Wake zone to help protect boaters, swimmers, shoreline habitat and nesting Western Grebes. Review this guide before your visit to learn the rules, understand navigation markers and stay safe on the water.
