BLM Fremont Peak Dispersed Area
Dispersed Camping
This desert dispersed area sits in the foothills below Fremont Peak, offering wide-open camping with 360-degree views across the Mojave. Sites are scattered across gently rolling terrain with established fire rings and good separation between camps. The area attracts serious stargazers — light pollution is minimal and the high desert air is typically clear.
Access via good gravel roads from Highway 14, suitable for most vehicles. Water and supplies available in nearby Mojave. Wind can be fierce in spring; summer heat is intense during midday hours.
