Juniper Campground — Mount Diablo State Park
Reviewed Nov. 28, 2024

Hot as hell in the summer

Insanely hot in the summer, I would recommend not going in July like we did. It was 104° or something and I was just drenching my clothes in water to stay cool.

The hike is pretty nice to the summit from there.

Lots of free water and there's free showers too which is awesome, but don't use the stinky toilet at the top there's way better ones around the bottom area.

They have food lockers, not bear lockers, and ours was broken one time so have a solid backup plan, the raccoons are very intelligent and they come out at night so be prepared for that.

BRING SHOWER SHOES AND SOAP UR GOING TO WANT IT
