Vallecito area of the Weminuche Wilderness
|
The Vallecito Campground is one of the largest and most popular on the Forest. The campground is adjacent to Vallecito Creek and the Weminuche Wilderness. At 8,000 feet, its 80 sites in four loops are shaded by stately conifers. Most sites are large and fairly level. The few by the creek are quickly occupied.There is limited parking for the heavily used Vallecito Creek Trail, a major access point for the wilderness, at the north end of the campground.
Directions from Bayfield, Colorado: Travel 20 miles north on County Road 501, then turn right on County Road 500 for 3 miles.
