About
Alpine View Campground is located in the Trinity Unit of the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area at an elevation of 2,400 feet, approximately 25 miles north of Weaverville. This well-developed 53-site family campground is particularly suited for families with children, elderly visitors, and those with accessibility needs. The campground features three loops (A, B, and C) with sites nestled among Douglas fir and cedar trees with a fern understory. Several sites in Loops A and B offer views of Trinity Lake. The campground provides paved social areas, roads, and spurs with a maximum vehicle length of 32 feet. Each site includes a picnic table and campfire ring, and many sites have bear-proof food storage lockers. The facility offers three accessible flush toilet restrooms and drinking water throughout. Several campsites are wheelchair accessible, making this one of the more accessible campgrounds in the Trinity Lake area. Recreational opportunities abound with the Bowerman boat ramp located just a quarter-mile from the campground entrance. Anglers fish for catfish, trout, salmon, and bass in Trinity Lake. The 0.3-mile Lake Trail provides easy hiking access, and the area supports water skiing, boating, and wildlife viewing. Bears are common in the area, so proper food storage is required. The campground operates seasonally and accepts reservations through Recreation.gov.
