The Bureau of Land Management’s Pit River Campground and river access area will reopen for the season Saturday, April 26th, coinciding with the opening of the California stream fishing season.
The campground features seven individual campsites, a group campsite, and a day use area ideal for fishing and picnicking. Campsites have fire rings, tables and barbecues. Barbecues and picnic tables are available at the day use site.
Those with walking difficulties can fish from an accessible fishing pier, while kayakers can take advantage of a specially-designed launch site.
There are no fees for the day use site. Campsite fees are $8 per night; the group site is $12 nightly. Camping is on a first-come, first served basis, with a limit of 14 days. Reservations are not accepted.
The campground is five miles west of Fall River Mills along State Highway 299.
