Campground Overview
About Glacier View Campground
Glacier View Campground offers a convenient basecamp for exploring the Eastern Sierra, with stunning views of the Palisade Glacier and easy access to outdoor adventures. This no-frills campground provides basic amenities in a scenic setting, catering to both RV and tent campers seeking proximity to Big Pine Creek and the surrounding wilderness.
The campground features partial hookup sites with water and electricity, as well as tent-only areas. Clean restrooms with flush toilets and hot showers are available on-site. While the campground itself is fairly compact, its location at the edge of Big Pine provides a balance of accessibility and natural beauty.
Situated just north of Big Pine on Highway 395, Glacier View serves as an ideal jumping-off point for hiking in the John Muir Wilderness and fishing in nearby alpine lakes. The Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest, home to some of the world's oldest living trees, is within a 30-minute drive. For those interested in local history, the Laws Railroad Museum showcases the area's mining heritage and is a short distance away.
