About
Hazard Lake Campground is a scenic, high-elevation destination situated along the shore of Hazard Lake at 7,050' in Idaho's Payette National Forest. The campground provides convenient lakeside access for anglers, hikers, and those seeking a remote mountain experience. All 12 sites are first-come, first-served and include a fire ring and picnic table. The surrounding area offers abundant trail access, with Upper Hazard Lake Trail #169 departing directly from the campground. Motorized watercraft are permitted on the lake under a no-wake restriction, though there is no boat ramp, so lightweight portable watercraft are recommended. The area is typically snow-free from late July through October. Facilities include vault toilets and a hand pump for potable water, though water is typically only available July through September. There are no hookups, showers, or trash receptacles. Campers must pack out all trash. The campground is accessed via 18 miles of gravel road from Brundage Mountain Resort.
Directions
From McCall, travel five miles west on Highway 55. Turn right on Goose Lake Road/Forest Road #257. Follow the paved road to Brundage Mountain Resort where the road turns to gravel and continue approximately 18 miles to the campground.
