Highway Springs Campground

US Forest Service campground. This campground is conveniently located with two loops located right along US Highway 160 4.1 miles west of South Fork, Colorado. The lower loop is comprised of Aspen and a few Ponderosa pines and includes all the tent sites. The upper loop circles a knoll above US Highway 160 with shade provided by mature Ponderosa pines. This loop also provides excellent views of the surrounding area and mountains. The south fork of the Rio Grande provides fishing opportunities just south of the campground down in the valley. The newly remodeled (2010) facilities include 13 campsites with tables and fireplaces, and adequate turnaround and parking space for RV's. No drinking water or firewood is provided.

Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
