What people say

Luno Life
"With 44 sites available, Hidden Valley is a midsize campground located in Joshua Tree National Park. Your stay here will find you surrounded by giant boulders, often frequented by climbers. Most sites at this campground allow you to pull your car right up to them, making it optimal for Luno car camping. Most sites have space for 2-3 cars, but some only have space for one. The campground is pretty centrally located, a little bit more in the north end of the park, but you’ll still be in a great location to access whatever attractions you wish to visit. You’ll be right by the Hidden Valley Nature Trail, as well as the Hidden Valley area and the Hall of Horros area. Hidden Valley is a first-come-first-serve site, so it’s definitely difficult to get one of these sites if you arrive on the weekend, but not impossible. Sites are $15 per night. There is no cellphone reception at this campsite, or anywhere in the park. Pit toilets are available, and trash storage collected year round. Campfires are only allowed in designated fire rings. Keep fires small, as Joshua Tree has a very dry climate and is susceptible to fires. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. If you’d prefer a reservable campsite, Jumbo Rocks Campground is a great option as well. Make sure to book early as sites fill up quick, especially on weekends."

"Hidden Valley has some awesome campsites nestled along the rocks! This one is also in the heart of the park and can be challenging to get. You can not make reservations here and its first-come, first-served. "
