Description
Just 15 minutes outside of Jemez Springs in the Jemez National Recreation Area section of the Santa Fe National Forest, the 7,600-foot San Antonio Campground sits in a grove of Ponderosa pines along the San Antonio River. This spot is popular for its river access, prime for swimming and fishing, plus its proximity to local hiking and mountain biking routes. Even better, the Spence Hot Springs Trailhead is just five minutes away. And at camp, San Antonio Campground features 20 campsites, just six of which accommodate RVs with electric and water hookups. Campsites have picnic tables and fire rings with access to a vault toilet but no dump station.
