The best camping near Burney Falls guide

Overview

About

One of the most stunning waterfalls in the state, Burney Falls towers 129 ft above a glistening pool deep in the mountains of the Shasta Trinity National Park. A must-see for those hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, Burney Falls will not disappoint. Just a short hike into the Shasta Cascades will bring you to the main overlook where the crashing waters are sure to drown out the world around you. Dubbed "the eighth wonder of the world" by Teddy Roosevelt, Burney Falls truly rivals some of the world's most spectacular natural marvels.

Notable campgrounds

  • RV Access: Equipped with modern conveniences, these spots cater to visitors who bring a piece of home on their journey.

Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book early: Reserve your spot up to six months in advance to secure your ideal dates.
  • Off-peak travel: Consider visiting during the shoulder seasons for better availability and a quieter experience.
  • Weekday stays: Increase your chances by planning a visit from Monday to Thursday.
  • Explore nearby camping options: If the park is full, look for alternative campgrounds in the surrounding area.

When to go

The best time to visit McArthur-Burney Falls is during the spring and summer when the weather is warm and the falls are at their most vibrant. However, the park experiences high visitation from April through October, with weekends often reaching full capacity. For a more peaceful visit, aim for weekdays or the off-season months.
