Black Dike Campground

Black Dike Campground is a primitive roadside campsite along River Road West in Big Bend National Park, located 10. 7 miles from Castolon with easy river access via a short walk through heavy brush—making it a popular spot for fishing.

The single site (BD-1) accommodates up to 2 vehicles and 10 people with a small flat gravel space, though no shade, toilets, or amenities are provided; a backcountry permit is required. Access requires a high-clearance vehicle via a rough 0.

1-mile access road, and the site sits within the Rio Grande floodplain with thick riparian vegetation offering some of the shadiest camping along River Road.
