About this swimming hole

Tish Tang Campground, run by the Hoopa Valley Tribe a couple of miles south of Hoopa, fronts a half-mile of Trinity River swimming water. The small day-use fee buys access to calm pools that have shed the spot's old rowdy reputation. It is a peaceful, family-friendly base for a Trinity River swim day.
