Camping

Developed camping is camping at family campgrounds and group campgrounds that have services and facilities. Fees are charged. Most campgrounds open in May and close in October.

Family Campgrounds are generally equipped with vault or flush toilets, fire rings, and/or stoves, tables and parking spaces. Fees are charged and drinking water is available. Showers and electrical hook-ups are available at Serrano Campground only.

Group Campgrounds can accommodate groups of 10-100 people. Group campground reservations are handled by Biospherics (1 800-280-CAMP) on the San Gorgonio and the San Jacinto ranger districts. In the other areas, group reservations are handled at the local Ranger Station.

Undeveloped Camping includes all the varieties of camping outside of a developed site. Camping is allowed in designated Remote Areas (formerly known as Dispersed Areas) and at Yellow Post Sites. There are no fees or services. Undeveloped camping provides more solitude and an opportunity to"rough it."
