Camping

The vast desert sky lights up at night with galaxies of stars above you whether you choose to camp in the pine-topped mountains, along the shoreline, or among towering desert rock formations. Mohave County features places where you can rest your head at night including tent camping, boat camping, RV camping and dispersed camping. 

Hualapai Mountains

The forested Hualapai Mountains rise just beyond Route 66 in Kingman. With ample wildlife and the Hualapai Mountain Lodge, this region provides the only forest meets desert views in Mohave County. 

Hualapai Mountain Park, operated by Mohave County Parks, offers reservations for tent camping, RV camping, and cabins, along with recreation sites, a disc golf course, and an abundance of hiking trails. Nearby, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management offers paid overnight stays on a first-come, first-serve basis at Wild Cow Springs Campground.
