About
Burgdorf Campground is a small, forested campground in the Payette National Forest, approximately 30 miles north of McCall, Idaho. At 6,250 feet elevation, the three campsites are nestled among trees adjacent to open meadows. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and fire ring, with vault toilets available on-site. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no advance reservations. Potable water from a hand pump is typically available from June through September, coinciding with when a volunteer camp host is present. There are no hookups, showers, or trash receptacles; campers must pack out all trash. Camping is limited to a 14-day stay. This location serves as a hub for backcountry recreation, with several trails departing directly from the campground: Nethker Creek Trail #143, Jeanette Creek Trail #140, Burgdorf-1 Trail #175, and Burgdorf-2 Trail #176. The nearby Burgdorf Hot Springs is privately owned and features developed pools. The historic towns of Secesh and Warren are also within driving distance.
Directions
Travel approximately 30 miles north of McCall on paved Warren Wagon Road (Forest Road 21). Turn left on gravel Forest Road #246 and continue 2 miles to the campground on your left.
