Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge, Nature reserve in Klamath County, Oregon, US.
The refuge encompasses 40,885 acres of wetlands, meadows, and pine forests, providing natural environments for diverse wildlife species in Oregon.
Established in 1958, the area changed its name from Klamath Forest National Wildlife Refuge to reflect the actual boundaries of the Klamath Marsh.
The Klamath Tribe formed settlements near the Williamson River and Klamath Marsh, utilizing the natural resources for thousands of years.
From Klamath Falls, visitors drive north on Highway 97 for 45 miles, turn right on Silver Lake Road, continuing east for 9.5 miles.
The refuge maintains wet meadows through cattle grazing, haying, and fire management to create feeding areas for waterfowl and sandhill cranes.
