About This Location

Gravel Flat Camping Area offers primitive, year-round tent camping along the scenic Kings River in California. Enjoy a quiet riverside escape.

Gravel Flat Camping Area offers a unique, primitive escape situated directly along the north side of the Kings River. Set upon a large, open sandy flat, this site provides expansive views of the river landscape. Because the area lacks natural shade, it becomes quite hot during the peak of summer, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a tranquil riverside getaway during the milder spring and fall seasons.

This federal campground is best suited for tent campers looking for a rugged, back-to-basics experience. Each site is equipped with a table and a grill or fire ring for outdoor cooking. Access to the area is via a combination of paved and dirt roads, with the final mile consisting of a dirt path. Please note that all vehicles must remain strictly on the designated roads throughout your stay.

Visitors should come prepared for a remote wilderness environment. As this is a pack-it-in, pack-it-out facility, please ensure you take all garbage with you when you depart. Be mindful of the natural surroundings, as poison oak is prevalent in the area and rattlesnakes are occasionally spotted nearby.
