Best Camping in USA Mountain States Part 5

Arches National Park, Utah

Why It’s Cool: It’s a red-rock wonderland with more than 2,000 natural stone arches and a variety of easy, moderate, and long trails. One of the most popular, the Delicate Arch Trail, takes you to the spectacular arch of the same name. Or take a ranger-guided hike through the Fiery Furnace, an area of sandstone canyons with no marked trailheads.

Where to Camp: The park has one developed campground: The Devils Garden, which has 50 campsites.  But there are also campgrounds located outside the park in the Moabarea. Since the park is relatively small, there’s little land for backpacking. To do so, you need a free permit, and you should know what you’re doing (be able to read a topographic map, identify safety hazards, etc.).

When It’s Open: Year-round. Visitor center is open daily except Christmas; hours change by season.

Cost: A pass to the campground is $25 per vehicle per night. Annual passes also available. For more information, visit the park's website.

Best Camping in USA Mountain States Part 4

Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming

Why It’s Cool: Grand Teton National Park is home to a number of impressive Rocky Mountain peaks, majestic lakes, and incredible wildlife. Nestled in the valley is the National Elk Refuge, where, depending on the time of year, you can get up close and personal to hundreds of elk and other endangered and rare animals. There are a ton of hiking trails ranging from easy to very strenuous, so can choose your own adventure.

Where to Camp: Stay at one of the six campgrounds in the park (Signal Mountain earns enthusiastic reviews). All backcountry camping requires a free permit and is available to walk-ins on a first-come-first-serve basis. (You may also be able to register online depending on the time of year, but it will cost you $25.)

When It’s Open: Year-round. Visitor center hours vary by season, but at least one visitor center is always open.

Cost: Fees vary every year, but expect around $30 per vehicle, valid for seven days. All entrance fees cover both Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. In the winter, there is a winter day-use fee of $5. Some national passes are also accepted. Campground fees are $22 per night per site. For more information, visit the park's website.
