Hot Creek Access
Hot Creek Access
Hot Creek Access provides public fishing access to one of California's most technically challenging fly-fishing streams, located east of Mammoth Lakes in a scenic high-desert gorge.
The site features multiple parking areas with maintained trails descending into the canyon, vault toilets, and picnic facilities, with a paved interpretive path at the main trailhead leading to geothermal features.
Access is available year-round during daylight hours, though winter access beyond the road closure requires snowmobiles, cross-country skis, or hiking.
