Sources, coverage & planning notes
This map combines published Forest Service, BLM, state agency and NPS campground records, plus applicable Corps of Engineers and selected county camping. Public-land campgrounds run by authorized concessionaires remain included. Federal coordinates are checked against Census state boundaries.
This is a broad public-agency inventory, not a guarantee of every campground, numbered campsite, tribal facility, county facility or legal dispersed pullout. Internal survey points and unnamed/user-created sites are excluded. Some loops, numbered sites and partner records are grouped under one marker.
Verify current fees, water, operating dates, road conditions and full truck-and-trailer fit before travel. Unknown details remain unverified. Hike-in, boat-in, group and equestrian camping are included; a pin does not establish vehicle access. Park-reference and county area markers may be approximate, so use official maps for entrances and routes. Photos appear only where sourced. Inventory and closure notes are checked snapshots, not live availability.
California State Parks campground locations, names, park-unit names and camping classifications are attributed to California State Parks. State data includes family, group, horse, environmental, hike/bike and en-route camping areas. Cabin-only records are excluded. A campsite class does not establish current availability or trailer suitability. Partner-operated Redwood campgrounds are combined where matching records can be identified.
Yosemite’s Bridalveil Creek carries the NPS 2026 infrastructure closure note. Death Valley road damage can affect campground access; check the linked NPS conditions page. County coverage is selected, not exhaustive.
