Yes, you can camp in Lassen Volcanic National Park. The park offers several established campgrounds, including Manzanita Lake, Summit Lake, Butte Lake, and Warner Valley. Each campground has different amenities and seasonal availability, so it's essential to check the park's official website for the most up-to-date information about campground openings, reservations, and fees. Please note that backcountry camping is also allowed in Lassen Volcanic National Park, but you will need a free backcountry permit, which you can obtain at the Loomis Ranger Station or the park's visitor centers. Always follow Leave No Trace principles and camp at least 100 feet away from lakes, streams, and trails when camping in the backcountry.
