Head to Wrightwood for camp in Angeles National Forest and mountain peak escapes.
From the curious 120-foot Bridge to Nowhere to the historic Mount Lowe Railway Ruins, Wrightwood and Angeles National Forest deliver delightful surprises for campers in California. Take Big Pines Highway to the forest for wild adventures amid rolling peaks and rugged canyons in San Gabriel Mountains, and visit Mount San Antonio—affectionately known as Mount Baldy or Old Baldy—which towers more than 10,000 feet above sea level. Find campgrounds in Angeles National Forest for both RVs and tents with picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets for an easy stay. Some RV parks closer to Wrightwood offer additional amenities like free wifi and full hookups with 30-amp service. After a few nights here, head out on Angeles Crest Highway for beautiful views of forested mountain vistas, and explore the Pacific Crest Trail, one of the most famous hiking and mountain biking routes in the United States. In the summer months, find first-come, first-served tent camping set at 8,000 feet along the trail where it intersects with Blue Ridge Hiking Trail.
