Newhalem Campground

Really enjoyed camping here. The campground is located right next to the North Cascades NP visitor center, and is about 1/2 mile from a general store that sells firewood, ice, and food. The campground seemed very well maintained, and the bathrooms were really nice and clean. There are a lot of sites with a good amount of space and privacy, and each site is equipped with a bear box, table, firepit, and tent pad/s. There are easy trails that lead to the visitor center and down to the Skagit River. I would definitely recommend at least trekking down to the river; the trail runs through a really cool rainforest! Diablo Lake is about a 12 mile drive east of here, making this a good base to explore North Cascades and beyond!

The walk-in sites near the Skagit River are wonderful and offer lots of privacy.
