Booking Pinnacles Campground — Pinnacles National Park in April

Texas state parks open reservations exactly 5 months in advance at 8 a.m. Central — so for a April trip, the booking window opens in November. Popular weekends can disappear within minutes of the window opening. If your dates are already full, check the booking system directly for cancellations, or book a cabin or vacation rental nearby.

What to Expect in April

Peak spring: wildflowers, mild temperatures, and heavy demand. Reserve early.

Park Highlights

  • The only campground inside Pinnacles National Park
  • Near the Bear Gulch and Balconies talus caves
  • One of the release sites for the California condor recovery program
  • Popular for rock climbing on the park's volcanic spires
  • Camping cabins available for those who want a roof over their heads
  • 30 RV electric sites, the largest electric section of any option here

Tips

  • This is the only campground in the park — book early for spring wildflower season
  • Bring plenty of water for cave hikes; some routes require a flashlight for the darker passages
  • 30 electric RV sites are available in Loop D if you need hookups
