About This Location

Experience primitive group camping at Faucherie Lake. This scenic USFS site offers two large group units surrounded by dramatic rocky cliffs and alpine terrain.

Faucherie Group Campground offers a rugged and spectacular escape for those looking to immerse themselves in the high Sierra wilderness. Situated at an elevation of 6,127 feet, the site sits right on the edge of Faucherie Lake, where campers are surrounded by striking rocky cliffs and massive boulders. This is a true primitive experience, perfect for groups seeking solitude and natural beauty far from the bustle of developed parks.

The campground features two spacious units, each designed to accommodate up to 25 people. Essential amenities are provided to support your stay, including picnic tables, fire rings with grills, and bear-proof food lockers. Vault toilets and garbage service are available on-site, but visitors should be prepared for a self-sufficient trip as there are no utility hookups.

This location is best suited for experienced campers and adventurers who are comfortable with remote, primitive settings. Please note that the access road is narrow, rocky, and quite rough; it is strongly recommended to avoid low-clearance vehicles and large trailers. If you are prepared for the journey, the dramatic landscapes and peaceful lakeside setting make this an unforgettable destination for group excursions.
