What Guests Are Saying
Moraine Campground offers a spacious and well-maintained environment, perfect for family camping and exploring nearby Kings Canyon. Campers appreciate the clean facilities, excellent hiking opportunities, and beautiful views, with a refreshing river nearby for cooling off. However, the campground is known for bear activity, which can lead to noise from car alarms at night, and some facilities may need improvement, such as bathroom cleanliness and better food storage education. Overall, it’s a lovely camping spot with room for improvement.

Great views from the canyon bottom. Large flat sites plenty of room. Our site was near the river and it was very peaceful. Highly recommend

Very spacious and beautiful. The river was refreshing and crisp! There was bear activity every night of our visit. Some more ranger presence would have been appreciated though we were ultimately very safe and had a community of other campers to help. Parking was mid.

We had a great time! It’s a decent-sized campground with lots of things to see, including beautiful views, trails, and the river. You can also hike down to the river, which was really refreshing to cool off in after hiking on a hot summer day.
There are flushable toilets, but the toilet paper is so hard to pull out, and it rips easily because it’s only one-ply. One of the women’s restroom doors has no lock, so you have to hold it closed while doing your business. Our fire pit was in really bad shape and definitely needs to be replaced. Cedar Grove Village is about a 10-minute drive away. There’s a store where you can get snacks, ice, and beer, and they also sell some hiking and camping gear. There’s also a restaurant with decent prices and showers, although they sometimes run out of shower tokens. Last but not least, this campground is in an active bear area. We had a bear encounter on both nights we stayed here, so beware and make sure you follow all bear-safety guidelines. Overall, it’s a great campsite, and we had a great time!

Bears are definitely present, but if you follow posted guidelines you should be fine; very nice otherwise

I used Moraine Campground as an overnight area to get ready to hike The Rae Lakes Loop. It is very close. We went during the end of July and the weather was very hot. I guess because of that, there were many camp spots available. The only facility we used there was the bathroom which was needing some help. Other than that, it served the purpose.

Very nice area close to the river and the end of the road. We went to the end and walked to the river with amazing view, and also there’s a waterfall very close to the road between the camp and the road end.

Lovely large campsite among the pines! And no cell or internet!! It was fantastic to be in the park - about 10 minutes from Roads End, enabling getting early starts for hikes.
Water spigot nearest the site didn't work. Bathroom was a longer walk than we would have liked, was not in very good shape, and had no lights.

- If your campsite remains vacant for 24 hours after your arrival date it will be cancelled and made available on rec.gov. You will be charged for the first night's campsite fee and a $10 cancellation fee, all other fees after that will be refunded. Recreation.gov policies apply to all reservations, cancellations, refunds and date changes. Call (559) 565-3792 if you will be arriving 24 hours after your arrival date so your site won't be cancelled. Upon making a campground reservation: Site occupants agree to follow ALL campground rules. Failure to comply may result in a fine. You are responsible for your guests.
- Quiet Hours 10pm to 6am- Music, talking, and generators should not be audible beyond your immediate campsite. Unreasonable noise is prohibited any time of day.
- Tire Chains may be required at any time. Be prepared at any time of year for a wide range of temperatures and weather conditions. Check Road Conditions at nps.gov/seki. Vehicles longer than 22 feet (including trailers) are not advised between Potwisha Campground and the Giant Forest Museum. Dangerous Rivers! Many drowning victims were playing near rivers. Rivers present a far greater danger than lakes or pools. Surfaces may look calm, but strong currents often run below. Be cautious walking near rivers as rocks can be slippery. Getting out of a cold, swift river is often impossible. Falling Objects- Don't linger under dead, cracked, or broken branches. Run if you hear cracks or snapping from tree roots, trunks, or branches (know that sometimes there is no sound, and very little time to react). Report falling branches or trees to a ranger. A California state fishing license is required to fish in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, and Sequoia National Forest lakes and streams. Fishing licenses may be available at National Park and National Forest markets.
