Camping near Raton

·

Close to the Colorado state line along Interstate 25, the small city of Raton—pronounced “Rah-tone”—sits against a scenic backdrop of the Sangre de Cristo mountains. Whether you’re heading north to Colorado Springs or southwest towards Sante Fe and Albuquerque, Raton has plenty to offer campers. There are several RV parks and private campgrounds in town, which offer tent camping, cozy cabin rentals, and RV sites with full hookups and space for big rigs. Just a 10-minute drive from downtown, Sugarite Canyon State Park is the place to escape from it all, with miles of forested hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding trails; boating, kayaking, and fishing on the lakes and creeks; and snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in winter. There are two state park campgrounds with 40 developed sites (some with full hookups) and basic facilities that include showers, vault toilets, and running water.

Fisher's Peak Ranch is a private community with 2 access gates. The rental camp site is approximately 3 miles into the ranch from the gate. The first 2 miles are well maintained ranch roads, with the last leg climbing up to the top of my 35 acre ranch. Most of the year the road is fine, but heavy snow or rain has required a 4 wheel drive at times. You'll be overlooking the city of Trinidad, with an extremely stunning view of Fisher's Peak. Electrical power is available with 30 amp RV connection, and several 110V standard outlets as well. Enjoy complete privacy as the site is on the end of a dedicated road. From the camp site, you'll be looking down at Simpsons Rest and the entire city of Trinidad. To the south, you can see parts of Raton Pass. Watch the clouds light up with the sunsets. You'll be taking lots of pictures, everyone does.

Fisher's Peak Ranch is a private community with 2 access gates. The rental camp site is approximately 3 miles into the ranch from the gate. The first 2 miles are well maintained ranch roads, with the last leg climbing up to the top of my 35 acre ranch. Most of the year the road is fine, but heavy snow or rain has required a 4 wheel drive at times. You'll be overlooking the city of Trinidad, with an extremely stunning view of Fisher's Peak. Electrical power is available with 30 amp RV connection, and several 110V standard outlets as well. Enjoy complete privacy as the site is on the end of a dedicated road. From the camp site, you'll be looking down at Simpsons Rest and the entire city of Trinidad. To the south, you can see parts of Raton Pass. Watch the clouds light up with the sunsets. You'll be taking lots of pictures, everyone does.
