Minersville Campground

About

Minersville Campground is situated on the Stuart Fork Arm of Trinity Lake within the Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. At 2,400 feet elevation, many sites sit directly on the lakeshore with views of the Trinity Alps. The campground has two sections: a well-developed area with paved, level parking aprons and full amenities, and a more primitive walk-in section offering greater privacy and a natural feel along the water. The campground features 14 sites including standard single and double sites, walk-in sites, and two ADA-accessible sites. One site offers electric hookups. Bear-proof food storage containers are available throughout. The Minersville Boat Ramp is directly adjacent, making this an excellent base for boating, waterskiing, fishing, and swimming on Trinity Lake. Rainbow, brown, and brook trout fishing is excellent, particularly for float tube and fly fishing. The 4-mile Trinity Lakeshore Trail is accessible from nearby Clark Springs Campground for hiking and wildlife viewing opportunities.
