Camping at Alto Pit Ohv Campground near Prescott

Public campground · Prescott · 11 campsites

A forested campground near fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Alto Pit OHV Campground sits at about 6,200 feet at the foot of the Granite Mountain Wilderness Area, in a landscape defined by broken granite outcrops and pockets of ponderosa and limber pine, manzanita, oak and native grasses. Once an active gravel pit, the site now serves exclusively as a motorized recreation area: two pits (Main Pit and a smaller West Pit) anchor a roughly 20-mile trail network that ranges from technical lines for experienced riders to shorter, more forgiving loops that beginners can enjoy.
