Lodging on the Byway

Camping along the Ebbetts Pass National Scenic Byway offers an immersive way to experience the stunning beauty of the Sierra Nevada. With two state parks and two national forests along the route, campers have access to a wide range of options—from convenient developed campgrounds to peaceful dispersed sites deep in the wilderness.

Calaveras Big Trees and Grover Hot Springs State Parks each offer well-maintained campgrounds, while the surrounding Stanislaus and Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forests feature numerous scenic sites managed by their respective ranger districts. Whether you’re looking to pitch a tent near alpine lakes, under towering sequoias, or beside a mountain stream, Ebbetts Pass offers a camping experience as unforgettable as the landscape itself.
