Hermit Valley Campground is a primitive, no-fee dispersed camping area at 7,080 feet elevation along the North Fork Mokelumne River, offering direct access to fishing and hiking opportunities.

The campground features eight campsites with fire rings and vault toilets but no potable water, requiring visitors to be fully self-sufficient; vehicles over 25 feet are not recommended due to steep, narrow Highway 4 access, and the site is closed in winter when Highway 4 closes at Ebbetts Pass (typically reopening around Memorial Day).
