Things To Do
Deyo Reservoir
Go cool off from the summer heat at Deyo. Deyo Reservoir is a great place to go swimming, fishing, hiking, kayaking, or have a picnic under the shaded picnic shelter. There is a nice 1 mile trail that goes around the entire lake. Bring your canoe, kayak, or stand up paddleboard, or you can rent them for the day from the Weippe Discovery Center if any are available. Deyo has a large camground for both tent campers and RV's. Deyo is a short drive to the wedding venue and a great place to camp if you'd like. Call early to get a reservation!
Weippe Discovery Center
Weippe is a town of only a few hundred people, but the discovery center is the place to go to learn all about the history of the town that was a major part of the Lewis and Clark expedition in the early 1800s.
Pick Wild Blackberries
Stop along HWY 12 on your way to or from the wedding near the town of Syringa to find tons of Blackberries all along the highway and Lochsa river bank that will be ready to pick the time of the wedding! Stop anywhere along the HWY in Syringa and look for the big blackberry bushes that line the highway. Bring gloves, as the bushes have thorns. You can also find blackberries along the Greer grade and other locations along the drive to Weippe.
Weippe Prairie
Take a drive around the Weippe prairie and learn about the historical stop on the Lewis and Clark trail. Stop in at the Weippe Discovery center on the west side of Weippe for more information about the history of the area.
Pick Huckleberries
Take a drive into the mountains outside of Weippe or Peirce and look for Huckleberries. They will be ready to pick the time of the wedding! The higher up you go the more huckleberries you might find. The huckleberry bushes will be found at higher elevations along forested trails. They are so good!
