Black Canyon Group And Equestrian Campground

Mojave preserves a diverse mosaic of ecological habitats and a 10,000 year history of human connection with the desert. Offering extensive opportunities to experience desert landscapes, the preserve promotes understanding and appreciation for the increasingly threatened resources of the Mojave Desert. This remote preserve encourages a sense of discovery and a connection to wild places. The Black Canyon Equestrian and Group Campground is ideal for larger groups. These two sites sit isolated from other campgrounds and provide plenty of space for your group. There are over 1.6 million acres to explore.
