Rio Grande Campground

This is a small, developed camping area in a grassy meadow, right on the banks of the Rio Grande River. It is not recommended for large RVs or long/wide trailers because the access road going down into the site is narrow and steep. The area offers fishing access to the Rio Grande River, and is a put in – take out point for summer rafting.  Even though the grounds sit next to State highway 149, there is little highway noise as the campsites sits down below the road in the river bottom. The river is very near the campground and is a safety hazard to children if unsupervised. Be careful.   

The area has 7 camp sites with picnic tables and fireplace rings. Three sites are gravel pull-throughs and four sites are dead-end gravel spurs. Download campsite descriptions (.docx).

Elevation is 8,800 feet. A volunteer host is on-site.

Camping limit is 14 days.

Amenities: No trash facilities, you must Pack Out all Trash. No potable water. 

Stay Limit

* Must have a Colorado Fishing License to fish in the river. * Area not recommended for large RVs or long/wide trailers due to narrow and steep access road.
