Sunset View Campground

It sits on a paved road and features 31 small campsites nestled among pinyon pine and juniper forest, offering tranquil sunset views and close proximity to interpretive trails and the visitor center. Each campsite has a picnic table and grill, while all roads and pads are paved for easy vehicle and RV access (limit 28 feet per vehicle).

Although the campground does not have site-specific reservations, its popularity means it fills quickly, especially in peak seasons and on weekends.

Flush toilets are available year-round in a heated comfort station. Drinking water is seasonally available at the campground and always available at the visitor center, but water at campsites is sometimes turned off in winter due to freezing conditions. There are trash cans and recycling at the campground. No hookups or dump stations are provided for RVs, and there are no showers or camp store. The campground is quiet, with a strong emphasis on enjoying the natural and cultural resources of the area. Visitors are within walking distance of the museum, mesa-top trails, and the trailheads for ranger-led tours to the Ancestral Puebloan cliff dwellings.

Open campfires are strictly prohibited throughout the park, though charcoal grills are provided at each site for cooking. The site supports both RV and tent camping, but sites are generally small and best suited for vehicles or combined vehicle/trailer rigs no longer than 28 feet. Several pull-through and double-wide sites exist for maneuvering and parking next to smaller trailers.

Surrounding the campground, guests can enjoy ranger programs, easy access to Navajo National Monument's interpretive trails, and nearby views of the region's striking canyonlands. The remote setting offers quiet nights and stunning dark skies, making Sunset View Campground a favorite stop for those traveling between the Grand Canyon, Monument Valley, and other Four Corners attractions.
