The best camping near Hayfork with climbing

·

Climbers head to Hayfork for rugged granite, shaded boulders, and over 770 campsites that put you close to the action. Spend your days sending routes, then crash at a spot where campfires are allowed and wildlife wanders past at dusk. Bring your dog—most sites are pet-friendly—and don’t worry about roughing it; toilets are common, and you can swim when the sun’s blazing. Expect to pay around $149 a night, though you’ll find sites for as low as $25. Regulars swear by Radio Ranch Camp (70 reviews), Box Canyon Farms (9 reviews), and Farias Urban Farmhouse (8 reviews) for easy access to climbs and a low-key camp vibe.
