About
Set in a 1,833-acre redwood forest just minutes from downtown Oakland, Reinhardt Redwood Regional Park provides a rare opportunity for group camping beneath towering coast redwoods. The park contains the largest remaining natural stand of Sequoia sempervirens in the East Bay, with nearly 40 miles of trails winding through redwood groves, chaparral slopes, and grasslands. The park offers three primitive group campsites accessible only by foot: Trail's End (17-25 person capacity, 0.86-mile hike), Fern Dell (up to 50 people), and Girl's Camp (up to 50 people). Each site includes a shelter, fire circle, picnic tables, BBQ, and drinking fountain with water spigot. Beer and wine are permitted with a $25 permit; hard alcohol is prohibited. The campground operates seasonally from mid-May through the first Monday of October. All reservations must be made by phone at least 3 business days in advance through the East Bay Regional Park District. There is no cell service or WiFi at the campsites, and no vehicle access is permitted.
