Whitney hikers love the Whitney Portal Store and the Whitney Portal Hostel
The Hostel is located in Lone Pine at 238 South Main Street. Phone: 760-876-0030
It is true hostel-style -- shared rooms (4 beds per room) or you can rent the entire room.
The store is located next to the Mount Whitney trail head and has operated by permit from the
Inyo National Forest since 1987. At the store, you can get
last minute hiking and camping supplies. The kitchen
serves pancakes and burgers -- some famously huge!
The Message Board has links to most information needed and updates regarding conditions on the trail.
Store Hours: May 9-6, June 8-8, July 7-9, August 7-9, September 8-8, October 9-6
The kitchen closes 15 minutes before the store closes. Note: On quiet days, the store may close earlier.
The Mt Whitney Hikers Association highly recommends both the
Hostel and the store. Doug and Earlene and their family
and crew are most friendly and helpful for Mt Whitney hikers.
