Overview of Site:

Lupine Campground is open year-round. However, it is hike-in only from early- to mid-November to late-April through early-May due to seasonal closures of Blue Ridge Road (Forest Service Road 3N06).

Lupine Campground is located 9 miles from Inspiration Point/Angeles Crest Highway (CA-2).

NOTE: Blue Ridge Road (Forest Service Road 3N06) is severely overgrown and very hard to follow between Lupine Campground and Cabin Flat Campground.

  • Campsites are first-come-first-served.
  • Picnic tables
  • Vault toilets
  • No water
