Devil's Head Campground

NOTE Jan 2025: Only the upper loop of the campground is open at this time. Sedimentation needs to be cleared before the lower loop can open. Thank you for understanding. Devil’s Head Campground resides at the base of the Devil’s Head Trail . Rock formations dot the landscape and provide outstanding views of the surrounding area. No dump station or hook-up available. Peak season is Memorial Day through Labor Day. During peak season, the campground offers full service (host on site, trash). Extended season has reduced services. This campground appears on the following maps: • Pike National Forest • USGS Quad Devil’s Head • National Geographic Trails Illustrated #135 (Deckers/Rampart Range) All dates are weather dependent. Visitors may expect full service between Memorial Day weekend and Labor Day weekend. The area also has an extended season when services such as water, trash or a host may not be available during the fall/winter/spring.
