Black Canyon Group and Equestrian Campground

Nestled at an elevation of 4,311 feet, the Black Canyon Group and Equestrian Campground offers an immersive desert experience within the vast, ecologically diverse Mojave Preserve. This remote location provides a unique opportunity to explore a landscape shaped by a 10,000-year history of human connection to the desert. The site is characterized by its quiet, isolated atmosphere, making it a perfect base for those seeking a genuine connection to wild, open spaces.

Designed specifically to accommodate larger gatherings, the campground features two distinct sites that are well-suited for group camping and equestrian enthusiasts. While the setting is rugged and off-grid with no hookups available, essential amenities are provided, including vault toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables. Visitors can enjoy direct access to nearby hiking trails that showcase the dramatic beauty of the surrounding desert terrain.

This campground is best suited for self-sufficient groups and outdoor adventurers who appreciate a primitive, moderate-level camping experience. Whether you are traveling with horses or planning a group excursion, the site offers a peaceful retreat in one of California’s most significant desert preserves. Please plan accordingly for a remote stay, as this site operates year-round.
