Williams Hill offers great views of the surrounding Salinas Valley. Pine trees, chamise, scrub oak, and impressive shale formations characterize the hilly
Williams Hill features campsites which are equipped with level RV pads, fire rings, shade structures, picnic benches, vault toilets, and a kiosk providing an interpretive panel, a map, and information about the area. Although no reservations or fees are required, there is a 14 day camping limit within any 28-day period.  There is no electricity, running water, or trash collection at the campsites. Please utilize good camping ethics, and remember to pack out your garbage when you leave.  Rules for camping at the developed campsites are posted in the campground.

Dispersed camping is also available at Williams Hill, although there is no camping within 200 yards of any wildlife watering improvement. You must park within 15 feet (roughly one vehicle length) of any roadway when camping or leaving a vehicle unattended to minimize habitat and vegetation impacts.  Please remember to bring a shovel with you for both personal sanitation and fire prevention purposes.

HIKING

There are currently no developed hiking trails at Williams Hill.

HUNTING

There are three main types of hunting available, including upland game bird, small game, and big game like deer and wild pigs.  Varmint (non-game) hunting is also allowed.  The California Department of Fish and Wildlife regulates the hunting seasons for different species and the types of firearms allowed for use.  Please be aware that this region is home to the California Condor and affects non-game hunting.

At Griswold Hills, you may find upland game birds, varmints, and small game.

This spot is a good 20 minutes from hwy 101. It’s a dirt road with lots of bumps and some deep ruts. Easy in a 4x4 and there are some small two wheel drive cars at the campground.

Very well maintained - thanks BLM!! Pit toilet, fire ring, picnic table and awning. Nice and level site.

We arrived at 5:30pm on January Monday and
Total 7 Site, there’s no body.
Most sites look west so you get a terrific sunset view over Big Sur.
