Climbers Bivouac is the main trailhead to summit majestic Mount Saint Helens. If you just hike to the base of the volcano, you can do so without a permit. But if you – like most people – want to climb this active volcano, you need to obtain a permit at recreation.gov in advance.

There are great camping options at the trailhead. Arrive early, since it fills quickly with hikers who plan to summit the next day. The trailhead is equipped with two pit toilets.
