The Burlington Campground in Humboldt Redwoods State Park offers the amazing opportunity to camp among the Coast Redwoods. You can camp in the shade of these giant trees.
Burlington Campground
The campground is located next to the Humbolt Redwoods State Park visitor center. This is a great location for exploring the Avenue of the Giants and the entire state park.
The campsites were nicely spaced out and had quite a bit of shade from the giant redwoods. The campground has an easy to maneuver loop drive between sites.
There is a picnic table, bear box, and fire ring at each site. You will want to be prepared for the shade and cool weather in the campground.
Dressing in layers and packing extra blankets is definitely something to plan for. While we were in the campground it was definitely cool and we wanted extra layers.
