Black Rocks Campground

Black Rocks Campground is a series of riverside campsites along the Colorado River in the Ruby-Horsethief section, featuring sandy beaches and cottonwood shade trees ideal for both rafters and kayakers.

Overnight camping permits are required year-round and must be reserved in advance through Recreation. gov, with sites limited to one night on Friday and Saturday nights.

The area offers Class I-II rapids, abundant wildlife viewing opportunities, and access to a 25-mile stretch of mostly flat water suitable for both motorized and non-motorized boating.
