Pinnacles National Park is very cool!!! Lots to check out. You can learn about CA Condors, how pinnacles form, rock climbing, learn about the San Andreas fault. All kinds of things to explore and learn.
The campground is clean with bathrooms. The showers are only near the convenience store, which is not very convenient because the camp sites are so spread out. The RV's have their own campgrounds. As do groups. It's a good size campground.
Our site was #46. We liked it for the privacy it gave. Most sites sit right on the open road throughout the campground. We were more tucked away.
I imagine this campground would normally be very green and the creeks and waterfalls flowing after the rainy season. Unfortunately we have been in some-what of a drought.
There are a lot of cool hikes. Hikes with caves filled with bats, waterfall hikes, huge boulder climbing hikes. Hikes to a reservoir, great for a picnic.
We hiked from our site to the reservoir, about a 9 mile loop. It starts off ok, then it just keeps getting better and better. At one point you actually are walking along the San Andreas Fault!! CRAZY. If you want to do a shorter hike, the park provides parking lots at the base of most of the hikes. Then it's only about 2 mile loop.
The only reason I gave this campground 4.5 stars, is because of the sites. They are very much "out in the open". That's just a personnel preference.
Go check it out, and hike to the top!! Oh Beware of the raccoons. These big guys are savy!!!
