Lake Campground
Recreation Home Page
|
|
Most people come to this campground because it is
located on the main access route to the Grand Canyon's North Rim
44 miles to the south . However, campers at Jacob Lake don't have
to drive at all to take advantage of excellent opportunities for
hiking, sightseeing, and wildlife viewing.
Right at your campsite you may catch a glimpse of the black
bodied,
white tailed, tuft-eared Kaibab Squirrel. It lives nowhere
else
but here on the North Kaibab Ranger District.

Naturalist programs are available in season, and there is a self-guided
trail near the visitor center. Horesback riding and chuckwagon meals
are available from a nearby concessionaire.
