About Jumbo Rocks Campground

Download the NPS app prior to visiting the park – trail maps and more! Jumbo Rocks Campground lies amid the huge, steep rock formations for which Joshua Tree National Park is known. Close proximity to many boulders and rock formations, it is a popular camping location for families with kids. Jumbo Rocks is one of four campgrounds in the park that requires reservations year-round. To get the most out of your visit Plan Like a Park Ranger  Travelers who enjoy warm, dry winters flock to Joshua Tree from October through May, when temperatures hover between 70-90 degrees during the day and drop to a 40-60 degree range at night. Summer is the park's off-season due to the uncomfortably-high desert heat. Jumbo Rocks is at an elevation of 4,380 feet.

What Guests Are Saying

Jumbo Rocks Campground offers a clean and well-maintained environment with stunning views, quiet nights, and easy access to hiking trails and climbing opportunities. Many campsites provide a sense of privacy and seclusion, especially if chosen wisely, while facilities like clean restrooms enhance the camping experience. However, some sites are closely situated, which can lead to noise and foot traffic from neighbors, and the presence of bees may be bothersome for some visitors.

Beautiful and unique experience.
So many hiking and rock scrambling options just walking distance from the campground.
Campground is cleverly laid out so that each campsite is in its own little nook.

Keys View. Jumbo Rocks. Plan on bringing water. Rattle snakes present. Bring your propane cannisters out with you! Don't just leave them at the trash can ! Lots of trash receptacles.

We spend 1 night just near to one Jumbo rock on the campsite Nr. 73. It has firepit, grill and concrete picnic table, but not so much flat place for a tent - you have to look for it, and more than one tent could be a problem. Also we like parking just next to the spot, we came by sedan, so unloading the trunk was very convenient. The place is quiet since it is on the end of the campground. Camping in Joshua tree was one of the best night during our roadtrip in overall.

This is definitely a park where you want to get out of the car and stretch your legs. There are a lot of trails of all difficulty levels, so anyone should be able to find a trail to match their abilities.
