About Cold Springs Campground (CA)

The Mineral King area features the highest elevation campground in the parks. At 7,500 feet (2280 m), it is only open during the summer months. It takes approximately 90 minutes to drive the long narrow, winding, largely unpaved road that leads to the area and its two campgrounds. RVs and trailers are not recommended on Mineral King Road and are not permitted in campgrounds. Mineral King is not connected to the rest of Sequoia National Park by roads. 

Number of accommodations: 38

Great campsite - keep in mind the overfill campsites (39-41 at least) have smaller bear lockers than the majority of the campground and do not fit most larger coolers!

Very remote. The drive is long. Don't go. (but if you do you will be in for a special treat)

Access to lakes and streams if you are willing to hike uphill and do 10+ miles a day.

Nice car camping sites with water and pit toilets in a compact configuration. Would be even better with showers, but can’t have everything! Rangers were super professional and helpful. Quite knowledgeable. Campsites are right next to a nice little trout stream, so location is lovely.

It was wonderful! Beautiful! I gave it 4 instead of 5 starts because the bathroom overflowed and they did not fix it. But, other than that it was amazing!
