About
Gray Falls is a day-use recreation site managed by Six Rivers National Forest, situated along the designated Wild and Scenic Trinity River corridor in Trinity County, California. The site is located approximately 12 miles east of Willow Creek and 2 miles west of Burnt Ranch off Highway 299. The primary attraction is the Grays Falls Trail (#6E30), a moderate 1-mile round-trip hike with approximately 300 feet of elevation change featuring stairs. The trail descends to the Trinity River, providing access for fishing, rafting put-in/take-out, and general river recreation. The day-use area includes picnic tables and a toilet facility. Important clarification: Despite being listed as a campground with 33 sites by various third-party camping websites, official U.S. Forest Service documentation explicitly identifies Gray Falls as a day-use only area. No overnight camping is permitted at this location. Campers seeking overnight accommodations in this area should consider nearby developed campgrounds such as Burnt Ranch Campground or other Six Rivers National Forest camping facilities.
