What Guests Are Saying
Black Rock Equestrian Campground is highly praised for its spacious, flat lot suitable for multiple rigs and convenient corrals available on a first-come, first-served basis. Campers enjoy well-marked trails, beautiful scenery, and the friendly atmosphere with hikers who respect equestrian space. Suggestions for improvement include adding a port-a-potty and providing easier access to water and manure disposal.

it was difficult to figure out how to make reservations in the middle of the night with marginal cell coverage but we were able to make a reservation and on arrival the volunteer camp hosts were very helpful and very friendly I recommend to future campers to plan ahead and bring paper maps and make the reservations from their home with good Internet access. Joshua tree national park is a paradise for nature lovers and people who enjoyed the desert like ourselves we drove from Black rock to Jumbo rocks through the middle of the park and it was a very nice short an enjoyable ride during the weekends a lot of people go there so you need to come early did geography vegetation and fauna are unique. We cannot wait to go back to Joshua three national Park thank you national Park service for helping us enjoy our national parks

The horse camp was empty pretty much the 3 days we were there in late January. we Did the Panorama trail but the day we did it was very windy and not a great time on top. The next day we went out the Burnt trail and came back on other trails including the fault trail, we loved that! We did not make it over to the main part of Joshua Tree, but looked interesting.

Very clean. Trails were pristine and lovely sand footing. Having water available was a plus, but make sure to have a way to haul it back to your horses.

I have horse camped at Blackrock for many many years and appreciate that the parks have the horse area to accommodate rigs horses and riders. Please continue to reserve the area for horses as the riding is outstanding with well maintained trails. The horse community is grateful to have such a great area to travel to and enjoy thank you 😊

I am so grateful for the park being insistent on only horse campers using the area for overnight usage. So grateful you are calling to be sure campers have a horse. Thank you so much. One of the best places to camp in winter with horses. Would like to know how to make reservations for Ryan Camp
