Fairview Campground Access

Fairview Campground Access provides 54 paved campsites along the North Fork of the Kern River (a designated Wild and Scenic River) at 3,500 feet elevation, 13 miles north of Kernville, with direct river access from the south end and trail connections to popular whitewater rafting and kayaking areas.

Amenities include vault toilets, drinking water, picnic tables, fire pits, and a nearby restaurant and mercantile; RVs up to 45 feet are accommodated.

The campground operates seasonally (April-November) and serves as an excellent base for both paddling on the Upper Kern River and accessing multiple hiking and mountain biking trails.
