Peltier Bridge Primitive Campground — Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area
Reviewed Mar. 8, 2022

Nice campsite, very close to Redding for supplies and access, but still qui

This campsite was very nice and clean. Each spot was decent. #6, 8, and 9 probably your best bets if they are open. 4 and 5 are right next to the entrance. There's a small narrow dirt road, but easily doable even in a loaded down sedan. You can only buy the pass online so make sure you get it ahead of time.

Even as close to Redding as this was there were no highway or "civilization" sounds at night which was awesome. Plenty of frog noises though!

The drive up there was lots of old fire damage, but the site itself had lots of green (and poison oak!) The nearby trails were all in sight of the burned areas however.
