Plan your stay

How far ahead to book Rocky Mountain National Park Glacier Basin Campground

For July weekends, book about 170 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 88 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

See booking patterns

Arrival month	Fri/Sat arrivals: half booked at least	A quarter at least	Other days: half booked at least	A quarter at least
May	66 days ahead	155 days ahead	26 days ahead	118 days ahead
June	81 days ahead	162 days ahead	32 days ahead	137 days ahead
July	88 days ahead	170 days ahead	51 days ahead	143 days ahead
August	67 days ahead	160 days ahead	27 days ahead	105 days ahead
September	59 days ahead	146 days ahead	18 days ahead	94 days ahead

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (73,527 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.
