About

Denny Campground is a small, remote campground nestled in the Trinity County wilderness of Shasta-Trinity National Forest, providing a peaceful retreat for campers seeking solitude along the New River. This primitive facility features 5 first-come, first-served campsites, with one site able to accommodate trailers up to 22 feet in length. The campground offers vault toilets and picnic tables at each site, but visitors must bring their own water as no potable water is available on-site. The campground's location along the New River provides excellent opportunities for fishing, swimming, and wildlife viewing. A steep trail leads down from the campground to the river, offering access for anglers and swimmers. The surrounding forest also provides opportunities for hiking, backpacking, and hunting in season. The remote setting makes this an ideal destination for experienced campers who appreciate a more primitive camping experience away from crowds. Access to Denny Campground requires following State Route 299 to Hawkins Bar, then turning north on Denny Road. The remote location and primitive amenities make this campground best suited for self-sufficient campers who are prepared for backcountry-style camping. No fees are charged for camping at this site, and dogs are welcome but must be kept on a leash of 6 feet or shorter.
