Black Rock Canyon Campground is a large campground with 99 campsites located in the northwest corner of the Joshua Tree National Park. Joshua Tree National Park is a fantastic destination for those interested in Outdoor recreation including hiking, biking, horseback riding, rock climbing, bouldering, star-gazing, flowers and wildlife viewing. There are many historic sites in Joshua Tree National Park.

Each campsite has a picnic table, fire ring with rest rooms and water nearby. Campsites vary in size and can accommodate both tents and RVs. A day-use picnic area and a dump station are also available.

For horse owners, a separate area is provided for camping or for staging a ride.

Because of the park’s very dry climate, fire danger in Joshua Tree is almost always very high. Be cautious. Campfires are allowed only in designated fire rings or grills that are found in park campgrounds or picnic areas. Keep fires small.

Bring your own firewood. You may not gather park vegetation, whether living or dead, to fuel your campfire. If you plan to have a campfire, bring extra water to douse it thoroughly.
