Campground Overview

About Green River Campground

Green River Campground offers a riverside oasis where ancient landscapes meet modern adventure, providing exceptional access to both dinosaur discoveries and serene natural beauty.

Set along the banks of its namesake river, this campground in Dinosaur National Monument blends rugged scenery with comfortable amenities. Towering cottonwoods provide welcome shade for the well-maintained sites, while the gentle flow of the Green River creates a soothing backdrop for campers. The campground's proximity to Split Mountain adds a dramatic visual element, with its eroded cliffs visible from many sites.

Located just five miles from the famous Quarry Exhibit Hall, Green River Campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the monument's paleontological wonders. The nearby Split Mountain Boat Ramp offers easy river access for rafting enthusiasts. Within a short drive, visitors can embark on scenic hikes like the River Trail or the intriguing Sound of Silence Trail, immersing themselves in the unique geology and diverse ecosystems of the area.

This campground caters well to both tent campers and RV users, though it lacks hookups and shower facilities. The presence of flush toilets and drinking water adds a touch of convenience to the otherwise rustic experience. Fire rings and picnic tables at each site encourage outdoor living and stargazing under the clear Utah skies.

Green River Campground's reputation among outdoor enthusiasts speaks to its ability to provide an authentic national monument camping experience while offering easy access to world-class attractions.
