About this campground

Lassen is a lovely little campground near the obsidian mines.  It is currently under discussion for decommissioning. This is open area camping as there are no designated camp-sites.  FRock fire rings are located throughout the area.

Turn east on County Road 11 and continue approximately 9 miles to County Road 30/Modoc Backcountry Discovery Trail and turn left/north. Continue north approximately 15 miles to the campground on the right. Alternately, continue past Davis Creek to Co. Rd. 47, turn right (east) and follow the few signs to the campground.
