Placerita Canyon Los Pineros Trail Sites

I have not stayed at this site yet, but discovered it recently, and so I am adding it for people who are looking for group camping options in the Los Angeles area/ San Fernando Valley area. These sites can only be reserved by groups if you call the park office in advance.

It’s a short hike in from one trail that connects to Placerita Canyon Rd, or a ~1 mile hike from the Nature Center.

Picnic tables and water spigots are available in the group sites, with a port-o-potty nearby.

Beautiful stream/waterfall trail directly from the sites
