About

Tunnel Rock Campground was once a small, primitive camping area situated along Lewiston Lake within the Trinity Unit of the Whiskeytown-Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area. The campground was managed by the Shasta-Trinity National Forest and offered a rustic camping experience near the cold, clear waters of Lewiston Lake. The campground has been permanently closed by the U.S. Forest Service. All facilities have been decommissioned, including water systems and restrooms. The site is no longer available for overnight camping. Campers seeking alternatives in the Lewiston Lake area can consider nearby campgrounds such as Mary Smith Campground, Ackerman Campground, or Cooper Gulch Campground, which remain operational within the Shasta-Trinity National Forest.

Directions

From Weaverville, take Highway 3 north for 7 miles. Turn right on Rush Creek Road and continue for 9 miles. Then, turn left on Trinity Dam Boulevard for 6.25 miles; the campground is located on the left side of the road.
