Fret Creek Trailhead is a small gravel lot in the Barlow Ranger District with room for 4 vehicles. It serves Fret Creek Trail #456A and the Badger Creek Wilderness.
There are no restrooms or drinking water at the trailhead itself. Restrooms are available a short way off at Fifteenmile Campground, so plan a stop there if you need one. With so few parking spots, it helps to carpool, and bring all the water you’ll need for your time on the trail.
