Pebble Creek Campground

Pebble Creek Campground is a camping facility within Yellowstone National Park offering 27 sites positioned at approximately 6,900 feet elevation beside Pebble Creek. The grounds provide spaces for recreational vehicles up to 42 feet in length alongside dedicated tent camping areas.

This campground was established following Yellowstone's creation in 1872 to provide visitor access to protected lands. Its development reflected early efforts to open the park while managing use of its resources.

The campground functions as an educational center where rangers lead programs about local wildlife, geology, and natural processes within the Yellowstone ecosystem.

The campground is accessible year-round, though tent sites operate seasonally from mid-June through September. Its proximity to Lamar Valley provides good opportunities for spotting wildlife such as bison, elk, and bears in their natural setting.

Rangers regularly conduct educational programs at this location covering geology, wildlife behavior, and natural processes within the park. Visitors gain direct access to expert knowledge about how Yellowstone ecosystems function.
