Rio Grande Campground in Colorado. Ringed marker is this site; the other dots are the 939 public campsites we map in Colorado.
This is a small, developed camping area in a grassy meadow, right on the banks of the Rio Grande River. It is not recommended for large RVs or long/wide trailers because the access road going down into the site is narrow and steep. The area offers fishing access to the Rio Grande River, and is a put in - take out point for summer rafting. Even though the grounds sit next to State highway 149, there is little highway noise as the campsites sits down below the road in the river bottom. The river is very near the campground and is a safety hazard to children if unsupervised. Be careful.
Motocamp routes the vehicle you are actually in and picks up the road surface on the way. Download the state and it keeps working with no signal.
