About
Grays Peak Group Campground is located 45 miles outside San Bernardino at an elevation of 7,132 feet in San Bernardino National Forest. Nestled in a mixed conifer forest with grassy understory, the campground provides mature trees for shade along with open meadows. The single group site accommodates up to 40 people and 8 vehicles with tent and RV camping options on gravel parking spurs. The campground provides excellent access to hiking and mountain biking trails, including the 3.4-mile Grays Peak Trail to Hanna Flat Campground and a short 1-mile route to Butler Peak Fire Lookout. Big Bear Lake, located nearby, offers fishing for trout, bluegill, crappie, catfish and largemouth bass, plus boating opportunities. The Big Bear Discovery Center is about 5 miles away, featuring educational programs, interpretive trails and visitor information. Campers should note that drinking water is not provided, and fire restrictions currently prohibit wood and charcoal fires. Gas stoves and portable fire rings using gas, kerosene or pressurized liquid fuel are permitted with a valid California Campfire Permit.
