Bean Creek Basin Trail Route Guide

Share your favourite pictures from this trail
Bean Creek Basin is a 4.7mi moderately difficult hike in Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. This trail leads to a backcountry camping site but is also nice as a day hike. The fall colors are wonderful and the trail offers plenty of shade for hot days. With a small waterfall en route and mountain views, it’s a pleasant moderately trafficked trip.

Route Description for Bean Creek Basin Trail

Bean Creek Basin Trail is a delightful moderate trip for the backpacker or day hiker. With waterfalls, fall colors, mountains, and streams to see, it’s a varied trail with lots of shade for hot days. It requires a good bit of uphill climbing, so we don’t recommend it for young children.

Beginning from the trailhead, head north on Beverly Turnpike Trail #1391. Where Bean Creek branches off to the right, turn to follow it. Where the creek splits, keep left to follow the same arm. A few switchbacks take you up to the backcountry camping site in the basin, which is where your route ends. Head back the same way you came up.

Getting to the Bean Creek Basin Trail Trailhead

The trailhead for Bean Creek Basin Trail is at the end of Forest Road 9737 112.
