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.

Jumbo Rocks is absolutely beautiful! The experience was even better as the campground hosts were friendly and happy to help with a minor issue. The NPS employees we talked to were very friendly and knowledgeable.

Great for stargazing. Beautiful and peaceful. Plenty of places just outside the park to purchase water and firewood.

For such a large campground, it was clean, relatively quiet, every site seemed to have a great view and the trails that started in the campground were great!

Love how tucked in this campground feels! The surrounding monzogranite rock formations leave something to look at (and climb!) in all directions.

Clean. Well maintained. Good facilities. Adequate space. Gorgeous views. Good for kids of all ages.

Some campers were playing airsoft and littering pellets through the camp ground. Would have been nice to have a more actively involved camp host at that time. Garbage dumpsters needed more frequent emptying.

Overall, look forward to returning in the future. Great site and ground.

Jumbo Rocks is a great Campground.
It seems geared towards big families, and has lots of bathrooms and great rocks to climb too.
I loved waking up early and walking out across the Park Drive to watch the sunrise, and also set.

This campground was simply stunning. Sites were nestled among the rock features that afforded a level of privacy that can be hard to find at a campground this large. Rock features were accessible to scramble on and get great views of the sunrises and sunsets.

The location here is amazing. Beautiful sunset! The rocks are super fun. Note that there is one long street that winds through the campground, and some loops off the main. The best sites are on the loops off the main street.
Don't forget to bring your own water as well! The nearest water is quite far from the campground.
