Rocky Knoll is a National Park Service campground in Lassen Volcanic National Park, within the Lassen Volcanic Wilderness in California. The land is managed by the National Park Service, and the site sits inside designated wilderness. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically July and August, when typical averages from the nearby Manzanita Lake weather station run from about 78 to 79°F for highs and 45 to 46°F for lows. That station sits roughly 650 feet lower than the campground, so temperatures at Rocky Knoll run cooler. Vault toilets are the only amenity at the site, and a fee is charged for stays. The closest neighbors are Manzanita Creek Trail, about 1.5 miles away, and Manzanita Lake Group Campground, about 2.1 miles away. The Cat Walk climbing area is about 1.9 miles off, and Manzanita Lake Trail is about 2.3 miles away.
