San Rafael CG North

San Rafael CG North offers a quintessential high-desert escape for those seeking a primitive camping experience. Situated directly adjacent to the San Rafael River, the campground is framed by a dramatic northern escarpment and sweeping views of large buttes to the east and west. This BLM-managed site provides a rugged, natural backdrop perfect for travelers looking to disconnect and immerse themselves in the quiet beauty of the Southwest landscape.

The campground is well-equipped for basic needs, featuring eight individual campsites and one large group site. Each site is outfitted with a tent pad, picnic table, and fire ring, along with access to on-site toilets and designated parking areas. As a primitive location, there are no utility hookups available, making it ideal for self-sufficient campers.

This location is an excellent choice for tent campers, car campers, and those with smaller RVs who enjoy a remote setting. Whether you are planning a weekend trip or a longer stay, the year-round accessibility ensures you can enjoy the unique geological formations of the area in any season.
