About Sonora Bridge
Escape the crowds at Sonora Bridge Campground, where towering Jeffrey Pines create a natural canopy over this intimate riverside retreat along the West Walker River. Cast a line for stocked trout in the rushing waters, or enjoy a peaceful picnic at nearby Tule Lake, complete with accessible facilities for all visitors.
Tent- and RV-friendly campground offering primitive single-family campsites.
ElevationPerched at 6,300 feet in the Sierra Nevada, this campground offers the perfect elevation for comfortable summer camping—high enough to escape the valley heat, yet accessible enough for a relaxing mountain getaway.
Natural Features and SceneryThe campground nestles beneath a fragrant forest of Jeffrey Pines, their cinnamon-scented bark and graceful branches filtering the mountain sunlight onto your campsite. The West Walker River flows just steps away, its cool waters providing a constant, soothing soundtrack to your stay and excellent opportunities for anglers seeking wild trout.
Just a short walk from your campsite, Tule Lake's picnic area offers accessible facilities and a serene spot to enjoy lunch surrounded by alpine beauty. The combination of dense forest shade, riverside access, and nearby lake amenities creates an ideal base camp for those seeking tranquility in the high country without sacrificing convenience.
