About
Stony Creek Campground occupies a prime location in Sequoia National Forest at 6,400 feet elevation along the scenic Generals Highway. The 49 campsites spread through a mixed conifer forest of Sugar Pines, Jeffrey Pines, and Red Firs, with Stony Creek running through the campground providing a relaxing backdrop and fishing opportunities. The campground serves as an excellent base for exploring both Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Popular day trips include Giant Sequoia National Monument, Boyden Caverns, and General Grant Grove. Several creeks run near the campground for additional fishing and wading. Stony Creek Resort is located just half a mile away, offering public showers, groceries, a restaurant, gas station, and public phones. Black bears frequent the area, and special food storage regulations are strictly enforced. Sites accommodate tents and RVs up to 30 feet, though the forested terrain means many sites are not level.
Directions
From Fresno, California, go east on Highway 180 to the Kings Canyon National Park entrance. Turn right onto the Generals Highway and travel approximately 10 miles south to Stony Creek Campground.
