Azalea Campground

Azalea Campground is set among open stands of evergreen trees at Grant Grove near the entrance to Kings Canyon National Park. The campground's central location in Kings Canyon and Sequoia, along with the great array of programs, activities, and attractions around Grants Grove, make Azalea Campground one of the premier camping spots in the park.

Azalea Campground's 110 campsites are well spread out among the trees. The famous Grant Tree is only a short distance from the campground. Limited sites will accommodate trailers or RVs over 30 feet. Vehicles over 22-feet long should enter the parks via Highway 180. All campsites are open from mid-May through October, and some sites remain available (weather permitting) year-round.

You can purchase your park entrance pass in advance online and save time at the entrance gate: Park Entrance Pass.
