Dozens of Stanislaus campgrounds accommodate tents with amenities like picnic tables, drinking water, and seasonal vault toilets. Some RV sites have paved pads for trailers up to 50 feet in length. Also nearby, Calaveras Big Trees State Park lives up to its name with gigantic natural wonders. A must-visit? The North Grove and South Grove of giant sequoia trees towering up to 250 feet high and 25 feet in diameter. Hike through the woods to observe pileated woodpeckers, steller’s jays, porcupines, and flying squirrels. Fishing for rainbow trout in Beaver Creek is also popular among anglers.
