Campground Camping
The forest has many developed campgrounds. Visit mid-week to avoid crowds. Many recreation sites offer barrier-free access, call for more information. Campgrounds are available by reservation or on a first-come, first-served basis.
For campground reservations call 1-877-444-6777 or reserve online at www.recreation.gov. Make sure that you know the specific campground name rather than just the recreational area (i.e. Lewis Campground vs French Meadows Reservoir). For ease of use, we have linked each campground page directly to the corresponding direct reservation page on recreation.gov.
For additional campground information please contact local forest service offices.
