The place

Sheep Creek Campground in Cedar Grove is nestled in the stunning Kings Canyon, one of the deepest canyons in the United States. With the sound of the Kings River, and glowing mountainsides just beyond the trees, Sheep Creek Campground is a wonderful place for families to spend time in the great outdoors. Recreation Cedar Grove provides a plethora of hiking trails, from the hiking newcomer to the avid backpacker, and everyone in between. Day hikers can hike to Mist Falls, Cedar Grove Overlook, around the peaceful Kanawyer Loop along the Kings River, through Zumwalt Meadow, and more. Keep reading

Visitors can also fish for trout in the Kings River, or take a scenic horseback ride through the canyon with the Cedar Grove Pack Station. Facilities Each site in Sheep Creek Campground provides a fire ring, picnic table and large bear-proof food storage box. The roads through Sheep Creek Campground are paved, making it easier for both RVs and smaller cars to access the campground. There are five comfort stations throughout the campground, all with flush toilets, a large sink for dish-washing, and drinking water. The Cedar Grove Visitor Center is located .25 miles from Sheep Creek Campground, and Cedar Grove Village is nearby and offers a convenience store, gift shop, snack bar, hotel, showers and laundry. Natural Features Tall granite mountainsides cradle the south fork of the Kings River, as streams and creeks feed the river with snowmelt from higher elevations. Abundant wildlife roam through the tall ponderosa pine and incense cedar trees, meadows and along riversides. Hikes into the backcountry out of Cedar Grove will give visitors an ever deeper understanding of the beauty and uniqueness of Kings Canyon National Park.
