Campground Overview

About Hecla Point Campground

Rugged granite outcroppings and pristine mountain lakes define Hecla Point Campground, a secluded retreat offering primitive camping experiences in Wyoming's scenic Laramie Mountains. This small campground provides an intimate connection with nature through its limited amenities and focus on outdoor recreation. Sites accommodate tents and small RVs, nestled among pine trees with views of Granite Reservoir.

Located within Curt Gowdy State Park, Hecla Point sits between Cheyenne and Laramie, offering easy access to both cities while maintaining a remote, wilderness feel. The campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the park's extensive trail network, with over 35 miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian paths winding through diverse landscapes. Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Granite Reservoir, known for excellent rainbow trout and kokanee salmon angling.

Hecla Point Campground caters to those seeking a more rustic camping experience, with vault toilets and no hookups available. The lack of modern amenities is offset by the tranquil setting and opportunities for stargazing, wildlife viewing, and immersion in the natural beauty of southeastern Wyoming. This campground is best suited for self-sufficient campers looking for a peaceful getaway or outdoor enthusiasts planning to take full advantage of the park's recreational offerings.
