Bandelier National Monument
Discover ancient Native American history in these sublime Southwestern lands.
Hipcampers interested in Native American history should definitely schedule a trip through this expansive park. Ancient caves and cliff dwellings abound in this one-time home of the Ancestral Pueblo people. The Ancestral Pueblo ruins date back to 1150, but they weren't the first people here. There's evidence humans lived here as many as 11,000 years ago!
As such, there are multiple trails that take you directly past or through archeological sites. The fairly flat, short Tyuonyi Overlook Trail is a good choice for beginning hikers. Looking for more of a physical challenge? Try the Frijolito Loop Trail. This demanding hike takes you close to the unexcavated Frijolito Pueblo site.
If you're looking to bag a peak, set your sights on the Cerro Grande Route. This one isn't for the faint of foot, though. Cerro Grande Peak's th

If you're looking to bag a peak, set your sights on the Cerro Grande Route. This one isn't for the faint of foot, though. Cerro Grande Peak's the park's highest point at 10,200 feet, and the terrain can be unforgiving. Bring water and good gear if you want to conquer this one!

3 campgrounds in Bandelier National Monument
With very few spots that are very rarely filled, Juniper Family Campground is the perfect spot to get away from the everyday bothers of society. Take your dog for a walk around the paths near the campground, then roast some marshmallows in front of a roaring fire. With the ability to spot wildlife such as coyotes, this is a prime location to just Read more...
If you're looking for an up-close encounter with Bandelier National Park, Juniper Group Campground is a hot spot to stay. Located just outside the main park entrance, you won't have to journey far to reap all the rewards. Once you're done exploring the great outdoors, consider making a pit stop in Los Alamos for a little bite to eat as well.
Ponderosa Group Campground is like the Adele of places to stay: both popular and elusive. Reserve well ahead of time if you want a front-row seat here, where an area well over a mile high will get you just the right kind of dizzy. Sneak a glimpse at a Stellar Jay before it tries to swoop in for your food, and enjoy the beautiful towering trees. Ru Read more...
