Walker Pass Trailhead/Campground located just west of Walker Pass on State Highway 178. Drinking water is normally provided from spring through fall. Call 661-391-6120 to check water availability before visiting. Eleven sites are walk-in sites for Pacific Crest Trail hikers and tent campers while two sites have a parking spur for vehicles.

Hitching racks and corrals are available for horses. Located at 5,000 feet there are pinyon pines and a few Joshua trees in this semi-arid setting. There are no reservations or fees but donations are accepted.
