Most major parkland in Plumas County is state-managed (e.g., Plumas-Eureka State Park), where California State Parks rules apply: quiet hours 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. and a posted juvenile curfew prohibiting minors in campgrounds or day-use areas from sunset to sunrise. County park hours are posted on site; verify specifics with the managing agency.
Park hours and curfews in Plumas County depend on which agency manages the park. The county's signature parkland, Plumas-Eureka State Park, is run by California State Parks (Sierra District), and visitors must follow its rules and any Superintendent's Order. Under the statewide California State Parks regulations, designated quiet hours (peace and quiet) run from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m., generator use is limited to roughly 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and the camping limit is generally 30 days per calendar year. The Sierra District has also established a juvenile curfew prohibiting juveniles from entering or remaining in campground or day-use areas during the hours between sunset and sunrise. These state-park rules are posted at park entrances and enforced by State Parks peace officers. For county- or community-managed parks and recreation areas in unincorporated Plumas County, posted hours and closure times govern, and entering a closed park after hours can be treated as trespass or a violation of posted rules. Because curfew and closing hours vary by individual park and by managing agency, confirm the specific hours for the park you plan to visit with California State Parks (for state parks) or the relevant county or district office.
Entering or remaining in a state park area after posted hours or in violation of the juvenile curfew can result in citation by State Parks peace officers under the California State Parks regulations. At county or community parks, remaining after posted closing time may be cited as a violation of posted rules or trespass.
