Parchers Resort is an ideal
location for hikers taking on the challenges of the John Muir Trail or the
Pacific Crest Trail to resupply. For a $25 storage fee (paid upon pickup), Parchers Resort will
store your resupply package for up to 30 days so hikers with even the
most adventurous itinerary can get the items they need to stock up on before
getting back on the trail. Maximum weight is 25lbs per package. Our store is open seven days a week from
8am to at least 5pm so picking up your package is convenient. All packages must
be delivered by UPS or FedEx as the US Postal Service does not deliver to the
camp.
Something that
is very hard to find these days is a place where a backpacker can stay for a
single night, let alone when that place is only one mile from a trailhead!
Parchers Resort's Hiker Cabins are the perfect solution for Backpackers
looking to acclimate before heading off into the wilderness. Parchers also
happens to be an ideal place for those wanting affordable lodging while they
resupply for a thru Hike. A comfortable bed, a hot shower and a good night's
sleep in a real mattress can do wonders for one's energy level! Parchers
Resort is so dedicated to backcountry enthusiasts that we actually have a
two night maximum with no minimum stay on these cabins during the peak
hiking months of July and August. If you only need one night, we have you
covered! Click here

Any backpacker can
appreciate a good hot shower after a few days or weeks in the
wilderness. Parchers Resort has public showers available onsite. Five
dollars gets you 10 minutes of hot water to wash away the dust accumulated
on the trail. Our showers are open seven days a week from 8am until close.
The Parchers Camp Store is also stocked with all the basic toiletries in
travel sizes so you don't have to lug them along.
