About
Glacier View Campground is the largest campground at Redfish Lake, featuring 64 sites including 9 double sites spread across three loops along the north shore. Located at 6,500 feet elevation beneath the dramatic Sawtooth Mountain Range, the campground sits in a lodgepole pine forest with partial shade and summer wildflowers. Many sites offer views of the lake and rugged Mount Heyburn. Redfish Lake provides excellent opportunities for boating, water skiing, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing for rainbow trout and Kokanee salmon. Sandy Beach Boat Ramp is less than a mile away. The Redfish Lake Visitor Center is within a quarter mile, offering interpretive activities, evening programs, and exhibits on wildlife, geology, and history. Three playgrounds are scattered throughout the campground for younger visitors. The campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the Sawtooth National Recreation Area's 750 miles of trails. Nearby trailheads include Alpine Way, Fishhook Creek, Redfish Lake Creek, and Bench Lakes Trails. The interpretive Fishhook Nature Trail offers a short loop, while longer trails lead west into the Sawtooth Wilderness and alpine lakes. The Idaho Centennial Trail passes near the area. Redfish Lake Lodge offers equestrian stables, boat rentals, and a restaurant. An RV dump station is just over a mile away.
