Campground Overview
About Gansner Bar Campground
What sets Gansner Bar Campground apart is its serene riverside setting along the North Fork of the Feather River, where towering pines and the sound of running water create a tranquil escape for campers seeking a true connection to nature. Located within California's Plumas National Forest, this campground provides an intimate ambiance with only 17 campsites, spaced for privacy and nestled among the trees.
The campground caters to both tent and RV camping, though hookups are not available, and each site features a picnic table, campfire ring with a grill, and bear-proof storage lockers. Modern conveniences like flush toilets and drinking water are available on-site, ensuring a comfortable stay amidst the wilderness. The proximity to the river offers exceptional opportunities for fishing, swimming, and wading, while summer berry picking adds to the appeal for nature enthusiasts.
Positioned just off Highway 70, Gansner Bar is about 32 miles west of Quincy and close to the quaint communities of Belden and Twain for supplies. It serves as an excellent base for weekend getaways, day trips, or longer retreats to explore the scenic Feather River Canyon and indulge in outdoor recreation in the Sierra Nevada foothills.
