Campgrounds

Campgrounds on the Sequoia National Forest and The Giant Sequoia National Monument are listed here. Large motor homes and trailers cannot be acommodated in some campgrounds, and electric and sewer hookups are not available.

More than 50 developed campgrounds are available. There are family and group campgrounds, fee and free campsites, first-come, first-served sites, and sites that can be reserved. A concessionaire, under a special use permit, operates most of the campgrounds and day use areas. The camping season is generally from late-May through mid-October, weather permitting. Some campgrounds are open year-round. In addition, almost all National Forest System land is available for you to choose your own camping spot. For whatever information you need, you may call any Forest Service office for information about conditions and availability.

For reservations, call the National Forest Reservation Center at 1-877-444-6777. Remember to obtain a campfire permit if you plan to make your own camp. Visitors with Internet access can find out about campsite availability on the World Wide Web at: www.reserveusa.com
