Big Sheep Camp offers a unique backcountry experience located behind Wing Ridge, accessible via Salt Creek Summit, the highest SnoPark in the Wallowa Mountains at six thousand two hundred feet. The journey to camp involves traveling approximately three miles with light day-packs over a seven thousand five hundred foot saddle along Wing Ridge Trail 1828. This route eliminates the first-day slog to camp and allows guests to enjoy skiing or exploring on the way to and from the camp, which sits at six thousand four hundred feet on the 100 road. For those who prefer not to carry heavy gear, porter service is available for a small fee, while more adventurous guests can carry their own load and take a flat four mile route via the Wagon Road Trail.
The camp includes two separate sleep cabins designed to accommodate different groups of up to six guests each, with shared facilities including a twenty foot kitchen yurt and sauna. Exclusive use of the camp is available for groups of up to twelve people, providing privacy and a full backcountry experience. This combination of comfortable accommodations and access to remote trails offers a perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. Guests can enjoy the beauty of the Wallowa Mountains, outdoor activities, and the communal atmosphere of a well-equipped backcountry basecamp, making it ideal for small groups and winter sports enthusiasts seeking an immersive mountain experience.

Absolutely superb place. Brilliant attractions and the animals are great. Ideal for families. The food and facilities are great. WiFi available. Free parking. One real g is the staff. Everyone we spoke to was enthusiastic and helpful. We really felt like they enjoyed it as much as we did. Recommended!
We’d always come up to Devon from East Sussex to visit my great grandparents who’d always take us to the big sheep. One of my best childhood memories is visiting this place. Unfortunately my grandparents passed in 2019&2020, so I hadn’t visited this place in years, the last time I visited was when I was around 14? I’m now 22 and have come up to Devon with my partner and son and we re visited the big sheep yesterday ( October 18th ). We had the best time! It was nice to see that not much has changed, it made me feel like a kid again! This place is just amazing, there’s so much to do and there’s always entertainment on! The animals are just so sweet and we really enjoyed feeding them in the barn! The staff are always so lovely and welcoming too. We fed some lambs which was an amazing experience & the man who hosted the lamb feeding was the same man I had a picture with back in 2013 when I was little! I’m unsure of his name but he had a great sense of humour and was overall really lovely! I’m looking forward to bringing my son here every year so Devon & the big sheep can be a big part of his childhood too❤️
Our family had the most enjoyable and hilarious time here today. This represents, in my opinion, one of the best value days out around. John was incredibly entertaining during Rams on Parade, the Duck Trials and the sheep race, and we also really enjoyed feeding the lambs. The rides are all free, which we did not expect, and we went on the rollercoaster 3 times. The cafe is lovely and the play equipment was really fun for our daughter too. There were also some lovely things which we bought in the shop. Could not recommend this more!
My 4yr old loved it and so did the adults. The indoor playroom and feeding the lambs were the biggest hits but the bouncy pillows and train ride get a good shout out too
Brilliant day out and something for all the family as long as you like sheep, rides, and having fun. We went in half term, but it wasn't too busy. We never had to wait too long for the rides, riding the rollacosta 5 times in a row, and we always got good seats for the shows, which were very entertaining for the kids and adults. I would say it's great value for money as we were there all day. Cafe food wasn't the best but the service was great and the tables were clean etc. There are lots of picnic tables around so you could always take your own food.
