Hiking trails, biking routes, and OHV access spread across Mojave Preserve, giving campers multiple ways to use the surrounding desert terrain. The site itself sits roughly 100 feet off the main road down a dirt track, in a former turnaround with open sightlines toward mountains in every direction. RVs up to 35 feet fit, and access works well for bumper pull trailers. Watch for roadside brush. It can pop a tire. Cell service is available, camping is free, and pets are welcome. Campers staging trips through the region can cross-reference camping near Baker or check nearby options like North Lava Tube Camp to the east.
Description
Camping in Mojave National Preserve is an enjoyable and rewarding experience for visitors of all ages, backgrounds, and experience levels. Developed campgrounds are ideal for less experienced campers or visitors with passenger vehicles and RVs, while previously used undeveloped roadside camping sites offer a more wild experience for well-prepared four-wheel-drive vehicle based campers. For the adventurous and dedicated expert desert backpacker, there are more that 700,000 acres of wilderness to explore on foot.
