About
Blackberry Crossing Campground sits six miles west of Conway on the Kancamagus Highway (NH Route 112) in the White Mountain National Forest. This 26-site campground holds historical significance as a former Civilian Conservation Corps camp from the 1930s, with a self-guided interpretive tour allowing visitors to explore remnants of that era. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations accepted. Each site includes a fire ring with grilling grate, picnic table, and parking spot. Potable water is available from hand pumps, and vault toilets serve the campground. Dumpsters are provided. For showers, campers can use coin-operated facilities at Jigger Johnson Campground, six miles west on the Kancamagus.
