About This Campsite
Paso Picacho Campground
If you're seeking a retreat into the woods just an hour away from San Diego, Paso Picacho Campground offers a rejuvenating escape with a striking elevation of 5,000 feet that provides a refreshing change in scenery and climate. This lush, tree-filled campground provides a relaxing environment ideal for hammocking, trekking, and enjoying the great outdoors.
Facilities here are noted for their cleanliness, featuring well-maintained restrooms. However, be prepared for varying conditions as some spots are on uneven terrains or hillsides, making it crucial to check camping site sizes if you plan on bringing a trailer.
Key Tips:
- Cold weather is prevalent, especially at night, so pack accordingly.
- Facilities do not accept card payments, so carry cash for purchases like ice or firewood.
- There are additional charges for a second vehicle that may not be clearly indicated at booking, so be prepared for extra fees.
- Bring your shower tokens for a hot but short shower experience.
Overall Thoughts: While Paso Picacho Campground boasts a serene setting with plenty of hiking trails and natural beauty, some practical considerations such as parking limitations and charges, the need for better shower maintenance, and the occasional busy weekend crowd should be kept in mind. However, for nature enthusiasts looking to take in forested views and a peaceful atmosphere, it’s a worthwhile spot to enjoy a camping adventure.
