Moraine Campground Inyo National Forest California

Moraine Overview

Moraine Campground is located on the banks of Lee Vining Creek in the Inyo National Forest about 15 miles from the Tuolumne (east) entrance of Yosemite National Park.  This (first-come, first-serve) campground sits in a nice forest of Aspen and pine trees and has 25 campsites of decent size. Most of the campsites can fit a small RV or trailer, but there are also a few larger sites (parking spur up to 50 feet).  A few are tent only campsites. Each campsite has a table, fire ring, grill and food storage locker.

The campground is generally open mid May to late September. Amenities include drinking water, vault toilets and trash collection. Cell service is poor in the area.
