Mission Springs PCT Trail Camp

This trail camp has 2 remote camping sites that offer isolated scenic locations ideal for tent and car camping or a relaxing picnic far from the crowds.

This site does NOT contain the amenities found at developed campgrounds. There are no restrooms nearby and no trash containers. Please pack it in - pack it out! There may be water flowing at nearby Mission Springs (go past Horse Corral and follow signs), but water is seasonal and should be filtered or boiled before consumption. All sites are first-come, first-served.

Campfire permits are required for any type of fire use - campfires, charcoal BBQs, or stoves. Campfires may not be allowed at certain times of the year. Contact the office for current fire restriction information and road conditions.
