Summary
Camping is free but requires a permit from the Sequoia Riverlands Trust. Amenities are minimal: there are no toilets, water, or RV hookups—this is primitive camping with a few fire rings and picnic tables. Expect a quiet, rustic experience under dense valley oaks, perfect for birdwatching and stargazing. The area features short nature trails and is about 45 minutes from Sequoia National Park. Best visited in spring or fall for mild weather and wildlife activity. Reservations aren’t typically required, but check ahead for current access details.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
