West Fork Trail Campground
West Fork Trail Campground
West Fork Trail Campground is a primitive, hike-in backcountry campsite in Angeles National Forest featuring seven trailside sites along the West Fork San Gabriel River at 3,100 feet elevation. Access requires hiking 5.
1 miles from Redbox Picnic Area via the Gabrielino Trail, with water available from the creek (must be filtered), no facilities or services, and first-come, first-served camping on a California Campfire Permit basis.
The challenging uphill return hike and remote location make it ideal for backpackers seeking solitude, though an Adventure Pass is required for parking at the trailhead.
