Laufman Family Campground

Laufman Family Campground offers a true back-to-basics wilderness experience nestled at an elevation of 5,029 feet. This federal campground, managed by the US Forest Service, provides a quiet, remote escape for those looking to disconnect and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the California landscape. Its year-round accessibility makes it a versatile destination for outdoor enthusiasts regardless of the season.

The terrain is characteristic of the high-altitude West, offering a rugged and serene environment ideal for tent and car camping. Because the site is managed as a primitive federal campground, visitors should arrive fully self-sufficient, as there are no hookups or listed amenities on-site. The open, natural setting is perfect for those who prefer a rustic, off-the-grid adventure over the convenience of modern facilities.

This campground is best suited for experienced campers who enjoy a moderate level of challenge and value solitude. Whether you are planning a weekend trip or a longer excursion, the site serves as an excellent basecamp for those comfortable with primitive conditions. Please ensure you are prepared with all necessary supplies to enjoy this peaceful mountain retreat.
