About
Warren Fork Trailhead serves as the starting point for the Warren Fork Trail, a 1.5-mile path following Warren Fork Creek through a canyon between Tioga Peak and Lee Vining Peak to a high meadow in the Hoover Wilderness. The trailhead is located at approximately 9,500 feet elevation along Highway 120, about a mile east of Ellery Lake outlet. This is not a developed campground. The site consists only of limited roadside parking pulled off the edge of the pavement with no camping facilities, toilets, water, or other amenities. Overnight use in the adjacent Hoover Wilderness requires a wilderness permit year-round (day use does not require a permit). Campers seeking developed facilities should consider nearby Ellery Lake Campground or other established campgrounds along Highway 120. Water from creeks, lakes, and springs in the area should be treated before drinking. The trailhead and Highway 120 are subject to seasonal closures due to snow, typically from November through late May or early June depending on conditions.
Directions
From Highway 395, take Highway 120 (Tioga Pass Road) west toward Yosemite. The trailhead is approximately one mile east of Ellery Lake outlet, with limited roadside parking off the edge of the pavement.
