About This Campsite
Bear Canyon Campground
Bear Canyon Campground offers a secluded escape for those seeking the tranquility of nature combined with the adventure of a challenging hike. Nestled in the beauty of the Angeles National Forest, this backcountry site is ideal for hikers and nature enthusiasts looking for a peaceful retreat away from the crowds.
Hiking and Scenic Beauty: To reach Bear Canyon Campground, you will embark on an exhilarating journey that involves crossing five major waterfalls and navigating 26 creek crossings. The trail, measuring approximately nine miles round-trip, provides stunning views and offers the serene sounds of bird song and flowing streams. The lush environment features wildflower blooms during certain times of the year.
Campground Facilities: The campground remains primitive, equipped with basic amenities like a fire pit, picnic bench, shade, and a cast iron heating plank for cooking. The site is secluded and ideal for weekend backpacking outings, especially for beginners. However, be prepared for minimal facilities and bring sufficient drinking water and waterproof gear to manage creek crossings.
Nature and Wildlife: The area's abundant greenery with ample tree cover makes it suitable for hammock camping and enjoying the soothing ambiance of the forest. Hikers warn of poison oak, so being cautious and prepared is important.
Conclusion: Bear Canyon Campground is a serene spot for those looking to immerse themselves in nature's quietude. While the hike itself is demanding, it presents a rewarding adventure for those who enjoy exploring trails with water crossings and picturesque landscapes. Remember to obtain a pre-paid adventure recreation pass if parking at the trailhead, and ensure your gear is ready for an authentic backcountry experience.
Overall, this spot is best suited for those seeking a less-traveled path and an adventure that combines natural beauty with rustic camping.Photos

An amazing hike to the campground, but the campground is pretty lame. There is 5 major waterfalls and 26 creek crossings to get to this campground.

We did the trail from Switzer trailhead to bear canyon campground. It was ~9mi trail (out and back). The whole trail passed through the water stream. Very scenic view. Lot of bird humming is heard in the whole stretch. We found few wildflower blooms on our way. Since there is lot of switching sides of the stream throughout the trail, your shoes would get literally wet. So, recommend wearing waterproof shoes and waterproof socks to save your feet 🥶. Carry ample drinking water. Campground is primitive equipped with fire pit, picnic bench, shade, cast iron heating plank for heating ur food. You need to have pre-paid adventure recreation pass to part your vehicle at the trailhead.

A Backcountry campground, not much more than a stove, decaying Picnic Table, and a flat area to pitch your tent. A nice, peaceful campground off the beaten path. In 2014 the trail to the campground had many felled trees blocking the path, not sure if they are still there. Beware of Poison oak!

One of my favorite spots in the Angeles National Forest. Nice, easy and mostly shaded hike. Very quiet on the week days. Lots of trees for Hammock camping.
