Description

Fill your backpack to the brim and get to hiking—the campsites at Manitou State Park are only accessible to backpackers. The journey to your campsite will be well worth it, though; most of the campsites sit alongside the fast-flowing Manitou River, while are few sit near beautiful Benson Lake. The sites are scattered along the trail anywhere from .5 to 4.5 miles from the parking lot, so you can pick a distance that suits you.
