Campsite AtlasFish Lake Campground
Open mid-June through September. Campsite list calender is for the next reservable dates. Fish Lake Campground lies on the shore of its beautiful namesake, on the Orleans Ranger District of Six Rivers National Forest. Lily pads thrive on the lake, and Douglas fir and cedar trees provide ample shade and a secluded camping experience. Canoeing and swimming are popular activities on the lake. The kayaking, whitewater rafting and fishing at the nearby Klamath, Trinity and Salmon Rivers is considered some of the best in northern California. Campers can hike a system of trails, including the Blue Lake, Red Lake and Fish Lake trails, all of which have trailheads in the campground.
