Tenmile Campground

Ten Mile Campground offers a rustic escape where the melodic sound of Ten Mile Creek accompanies campers to sleep each night. This primitive campground provides an authentic Sierra Nevada experience with its towering sequoias and ponderosa pines, basic amenities, and proximity to outdoor adventures.

Situated in the Sequoia National Forest, Ten Mile Campground sits at an elevation of 5,294 feet, providing a cool retreat from the summer heat. The campground's 13 sites are nestled among the trees, offering a sense of seclusion and immersion in nature. While facilities are minimal, with vault toilets and no potable water, the trade-off is a peaceful, less crowded camping experience.

Located just 5 miles from the popular Hume Lake, the campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the region's natural wonders. Visitors can enjoy fishing in Ten Mile Creek, hiking through nearby sequoia groves, or taking a short drive to Hume Lake for swimming and non-motorized boating. The area is rich with wildlife, and campers may spot black bears, making proper food storage essential.

Ten Mile Campground is ideal for those seeking a genuine forest camping experience, whether for a weekend getaway or as part of a longer exploration of the Sequoia National Forest. Its location offers easy access to the majesty of the giant sequoias while providing a quieter alternative to more developed campgrounds in the area.
