About
Mill Flat Campground is a small, primitive camping area located at 1,100 feet elevation along the Kings Wild and Scenic River in the Giant Sequoia National Monument, managed by the Hume Lake Ranger District. The campground offers five sites on a first-come, first-served basis with no fees and no reservations. Facilities are minimal: vault toilets are provided but no potable water is available, so campers must bring their own supply. The Kings River is a major draw, offering whitewater rafting with up to Class III rapids. Beyond river recreation, the surrounding area provides trails for hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking outside designated wilderness areas. This is black bear country, and special food storage rules are in effect requiring proper food containment. The campground is unsuitable for trailers due to road conditions and site limitations. A valid California Campfire Permit is required for campfires, barbecues, and camp stoves, and fire restrictions may be imposed seasonally. Leave No Trace principles apply throughout the area.
Directions
From Fresno, go 47 miles east on CA 180, then Piedra Road, then 17 miles on Trimmer Springs Road (Forest Road 11S12). Cross the river to the south, then go east on Davis Road (Forest Road 12S01).
