Description

Niagara Creek Campground is located in a mixed conifer forest about 15 miles from the Summit Ranger Station. The creek itself seems like no big whoop, until you consider that it flows out of a glacially-carved valley, and drops more than 1,000 feet over Niagara Creek Falls. It’s the highest waterfall in the Sierra National Forest, so make a point to go see it from April to June. Otherwise, you may only see a trickle.
