Berger Campground

Berger Campground offers 9 rustic campsites at 5,900 feet elevation along Packer Creek in Tahoe National Forest, with vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings at each site.

The campground provides access to Packer Lake (less than a mile away) for canoeing and paddling, plus nearby hiking trails including the Pacific Crest Trail; note that potable water is not available on-site and the campground typically operates Memorial Day through October.

Limited trailer/RV space is available, and the remote setting with minimal cell service makes it ideal for a primitive camping experience.
