Preacher Meadow Campground

Preacher Meadow Campground offers 44 spacious first-come, first-served campsites in Shasta-Trinity National Forest along Swift Creek, accommodating tents, trailers, and RVs up to 45 feet, with each site featuring a picnic table, fire ring, and Klamath oven.

The primitive campground provides vault toilets and a campground host but no drinking water or cell service, making it ideal for hikers accessing the nearby Swift Creek trailhead and equestrian campers.

Trinity Lake lies approximately 6 miles away with a public boat ramp at Bowerman (water-level dependent), offering paddling and fishing opportunities in the region.
