About

National Forest

Inyo National Forest

Grandview Campground is nestled in low hills covered with Pinyon and Juniper. A large open area in the middle of the campground gives a truly grand view of the night sky. The combination of 8,600 foot elevation and no intrusive city lights make this a popular site for star gazers and astronomy groups. Campers are asked to minimize their use of generators and lights so everyone in camp can enjoy a peaceful night of stargazing. Grandview is also the nearest campground to the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, just 5 miles to Schulman Grove. The campground has 23 sites spaced on two loop roads. Most sites are flat and sandy with ample shade. Each site has a table, fire ring, and parking for one or two vehicles. Firewood sources are limited. Do not collect wood from live or standing trees.

Quiet, beautiful White Mtn skies

I pulled in here for a quick overnight stay and ended up staying 3 nights. It was so quiet and folks in other spots were quiet as well. It got busy on a Saturday night with folks coming in but but majority of them left the next morning early and the camp got almost empty again. Clean restrooms, bring your own water (none there) camps are private and you are pretty well hidden by pinions. It does get breezy up there and the pinions make for good wind break.

This campground is a minimal noise site and is noted around camp. The skies at night are amazing! Not too far from main trails of the White Pine Bristlecone forest. Lots of other places to explore.

No cell service, pack out your own trash (no bins), no water spigots (bring your own) there was no fee when I was there but may have changed. Ranger drives through once a day, pretty nice folk they are. Chat with them and they can give ya the heads up and places to adventure to in the area.

Near Glory

This campsite sits below one of the most magical places, the Ancient Bristlecone Forest. On the way up, there is an awesome vista where you can watch the sunrise in the South Sierra. There is a good Verizon cell signal there and an even better one at the pullout just past the vista point. Both are flat and have good parking. There's endless dispersed camping on the road.

Beautiful place to camp among the trees!

Nice campsites on either side of a small "meadow" (for lack of a better word). Peaceful, clean, nice tables, fire ring. 

Would stay here again and again.
