Mi-Wuk Village Area Campgrounds

Fishing, Hiking, 4-wheeling

The campgrounds off Highway 108 between Mi-Wuk Village and Cold Springs are at slightly lower elevations than most of the other campgrounds along Sonora Pass, often allowing them to open earlier in the season and to remain open later into the fall. Sugar Pine RV Park, a private campground, is open year-round.

The Forest Service campgrounds are located near rivers, providing campers opportunities for good fishing. Campsites north of Highway 108 offer tranquil settings away from the congestion that sometimes surrounds the more popular camping areas. Hull Creek Campground to the south is a popular OHV destination.
