About

At approximately1,000 feet in elevation, Kirch Flat Campground resides on a large sandy flat area on the river 's edge of the scenic Kings River and is surrounded by rolling, oak-covered foothills and spectacular river canyon and mountain views of the Sierra Nevada. Though it can be very hot in the summer months, Kirch Flat Campground is a great place to camp during the spring and fall months and is popular with San Joaquin Valley residents, fisherman, day users, and whitewater enthusiasts who come to enjoy many challenging rapids and beautiful canyon scenery of the King 's River. A good amount of shade is provided by oak and pine trees throughout the area; however, there is no running water or trash service at the campground. This campground is on the "Pack it In, Pack it Out" program, therefore, garbage cans are not provided. Campers are encouraged to bring their own garbage bags and take their garbage with them when leaving the campsite.
