Black Rock Reservior Boat Ramp
Black Rock Reservior Boat Ramp
Black Rock Reservoir offers a small, remote boat ramp and 10-site campground at 4,000 feet elevation on the North Fork Kings River, accessible via a challenging 17-mile paved road featuring narrow single-lane sections with 1,000-foot cliff drops and wooden bridges—not recommended for RVs or those uncomfortable with heights.
The area provides vault toilets, picnic tables, and seasonal water, with no fees during off-season and a scenic canyon setting ideal for fishing and seclusion, though the road requires daylight driving and is subject to winter closures.
