Butte Lake Campground
Butte Lake Campground
Butte Lake Campground sits at 6,100 feet elevation in remote northeastern Lassen Volcanic National Park and offers excellent access for fishing, canoeing, and kayaking with a convenient non-motorized boat launch.
The campground features standard nonelectric sites with flush toilets and running water during summer months, though access requires traveling 6 miles on a rough gravel road.
Popular hiking trails including the Cinder Cone Trail trailhead are nearby, and the lake's distinctive black lava flow creates scenic rocky shores for paddlers to explore.
