Campground Overview

About Greenbelt Campground

Greenbelt Campground offers an unexpected urban wilderness retreat just minutes from the nation's capital. This forested oasis provides a peaceful respite with over 170 tent and RV sites nestled among towering oaks and maples. The campground's well-maintained facilities and nine miles of hiking trails create an ideal base for exploring both natural scenery and nearby Washington D.C. attractions.

Located in Greenbelt, Maryland, the campground sits within Greenbelt Park, a 1,100-acre green space managed by the National Park Service. Its proximity to the Greenbelt Metro station, just 1.5 miles away, allows for car-free adventures into the heart of D.C. Nature enthusiasts can spot local wildlife like deer and chipmunks along Still Creek or admire the vibrant mountain laurel blooms in May.

The campground caters to a mix of urban escapees seeking quick weekend getaways and budget-conscious travelers using it as an affordable basecamp for extended D.C. explorations. Its serene atmosphere and convenient location make it a popular choice for those wanting to balance outdoor pursuits with urban sightseeing.
