Clark Springs Campground
Located 17 miles from Weaverville, north on Hwy 3. This campground has 20 campsites with a table and a fireplace and most campsites have bear -proof food lockers. The campground is a single loop through cedar and other deciduous trees. There are four secluded walk-in tent sites next to a babbling brook. The campground accommodates mostly tent campers but has three spurs for trailers. While the campground tends to be rugged, the adjacent boat ramp and swimming area at Trinity Lake are attractive. Directly adjacent to the Clark Springs picnic area, swim beach and boat ramp.
