Hikers and backpackers are especially fortunate to have access to a variety of spectacular trails near the campground and in the surrounding areas.
Several trailheads are located in the vicinity of Buck Creek campground, including Huckleberry Creek Trail. This lesser-known trail starts starts on an old spur road in second growth timber and follows Huckleberry Creek to the northeast boundary of Mt. Rainier National Park. For those looking for a more strenuous hike, the Lake James Trail continues into the park.
