Minaret Falls Campground Access

Minaret Falls Campground Access provides 27 campsites at 7,600 feet elevation along the Middle Fork San Joaquin River in Inyo National Forest, accessible via a narrow, single-lane dirt road open only during summer months (typically June-September) for private vehicles of campers only.

The campground offers vault toilets, potable water, picnic tables, and mandatory bear-proof food lockers, with a $32/night fee and first-come, first-served basis.

River access is available for fishing, and the location serves as a gateway to Devils Postpile National Monument and Ansel Adams Wilderness hiking trails.
