Dispersed Camping
Dispersed camping is a great way to enjoy the experience of camping away from developed campgrounds. Keep in mind, there are no picnic tables, drinking water, or toilets available.
Resources to Help Plan Your Trip
- Dispersed Camping Regulations and Guidelines: Please review when planning your trip.
- Motorized Vehicle Use Maps (MVUMs): MVUMs, per district, show areas where dispersed camping is allowed on the San Juan National Forest.
- Check with the local Ranger District office about any seasonal regulations or restrictions that may apply to the area you want to camp in.
