About This Location

Experience high-altitude camping at Lowry Campground in Colorado's White River National Forest, offering electric hookups and prime access to Dillon Reservoir.

Perched at an elevation of 9,258 feet in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, Lowry Campground offers a rugged, high-altitude escape within the White River National Forest. Located conveniently between Summit Cove and Breckenridge, the site serves as a perfect basecamp for those looking to explore the natural splendor of the Colorado high country. Please note that recent forest management efforts to address pine beetle damage have resulted in an open landscape with little natural shade, providing expansive views of the surrounding mountain terrain.

Guests can take advantage of electric hookups, fire rings, and picnic tables at each site. On-site amenities include vault toilets, a playground for families, and convenient access to firewood. The area is a hub for outdoor recreation, featuring a boat ramp for water activities on Dillon Reservoir and direct access to local fishing and hiking trails.

Lowry Campground is best suited for moderate-experience campers who appreciate a mountain setting and easy access to water-based activities. Whether you are planning a weekend of fishing or seeking a central location to explore the trails near Breckenridge, this year-round destination provides the essential facilities for a memorable stay in the Rockies.
