Lava Point Campground, Primitive campground in Zion National Park, United States.
Located at 7,890 feet elevation along Kolob Terrace Road, Lava Point Campground features six basic sites surrounded by dense pine forests and mountain views.
The campground establishment followed the creation of Zion National Park in 1919, providing visitors a remote location to experience the park's northern region.
Situated in traditional Native American territories, the campground area contains traces of ancient settlements and hunting grounds from indigenous communities.
Campers need to bring their own water supply, as the site offers only basic amenities including pit toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings.
The campground sits at the highest elevation among all Zion camping facilities, offering temperatures 20 degrees cooler than the main canyon.
