About
US Forest Service campground. Seven shady campsites are nestled at the base of the Salt River Range right along the musical Swift Creek just outside Afton, Wyoming. A single faucet is available at site 1, and an accessible toilet is provided in the center of the campground. Large picnic tables welcome family groups for meals. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
