Cave Campground

Cave Campground is a developed Forest Service campground with 46 first-come, first-served sites along Hat Creek, offering direct access to the creek for fishing with free day-use parking available.

Each site includes a picnic table, fire ring, and barbecue grill, with flush toilets and potable water available during the April-October operating season.

The campground is located just north of the Highway 44/89 junction in Old Station and sits directly across from Subway Cave, a ⅓-mile lava tube, providing unique opportunities to explore the area's volcanic geology.
