About

Nestled in a forest canopy of pine and fir on the banks of Icicle Creek, Icicle Group Campground offers a peaceful setting for groups and large gatherings within Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. This walk-in tent-only campground features a single group site that accommodates up to 30 people and six vehicles, with parking located approximately 500 feet from the camping area. The campground provides access to extensive outdoor recreation opportunities. Nearby Fourth of July Trail offers challenging terrain with expansive ridge line views, climbing from 4,000 feet through mountain meadows with spectacular views of the Stuart Mountain Range and Icicle Valley. Anglers can fish for rainbow and cutthroat trout in nearby Toketie Lake, while numerous trails throughout the area provide excellent biking and hiking opportunities. The surrounding Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest features stunning scenic diversity, from high glaciated alpine peaks to valleys of old-growth forest. The nearby Alpine Lakes Wilderness encompasses over 362,000 acres with more than 700 lakes and mountain ponds dotting the glacier-carved terrain. The landscape transitions from wet Douglas fir and cedar forests to firs and mountain hemlock, opening to expansive meadows and ending with dry ponderosa pine forestland.
