Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights1 site open for every nightA forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
The setting here reflects the park's range of mountain environments: Aspenglen is framed by stands of Douglas fir, lodgepole and ponderosa pines with occasional Engelmann spruce, and open meadows that fill with grasses, shrubs and seasonal wildflowers. From the campground it's an easy jump into the broader offerings of Rocky Mountain National Park more than 350 miles of trails for everything from flat lakeside walks to steep climbs, abundant wildlife viewing (elk and mule deer are commonly seen; black bear, coyote, bighorn sheep and moose also inhabit the park), and scenic drives like Trail Ridge Road and Old Fall River Road that climb into alpine tundra above the trees.








Length limits vary by campsite.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (33,644 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
