Thunder Ridge Campground

Thunder Ridge Campground offers 21 spacious, shaded campsites at 9,200 feet elevation overlooking Rampart Reservoir, with vault toilets, drinking water, and fire pits—ideal for paddlers and anglers seeking reservoir access.

The campground is located within walking distance of the reservoir with a well-marked trail to the water, and motorized boats may launch Thursday-Sunday (7am-4pm) while hand-launched boats are available daily; note that the access road is rough dirt requiring decent vehicle suspension.

Reservations are recommended May-Labor Day ($28/night), and the campground operates mid-May through mid-October with full services during peak season.
