Campground Overview

About Northern Plains Campground

Northern Plains Campground offers a stark contrast to traditional forested campsites, presenting a unique desert landscape experience on the shores of Lake Pueblo. This expansive campground balances proximity to water recreation with the rugged beauty of Colorado's high desert, providing electric hookups and modern amenities against a backdrop of sweeping reservoir views and distant mountain silhouettes.

Situated within Lake Pueblo State Park, the campground serves as an ideal base for exploring the region's diverse outdoor activities. The arid environment showcases resilient juniper trees and native flora, while the nearby reservoir beckons with opportunities for boating, fishing, and swimming. Hiking trails wind through the surrounding terrain, offering glimpses of local wildlife and panoramic vistas of the Spanish Peaks.

Just a short drive from the city of Pueblo, Northern Plains Campground combines convenient access to urban amenities with a sense of remote tranquility. The area's rich history is evident in nearby attractions like the Pueblo Riverwalk and the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk, allowing campers to easily blend outdoor adventures with cultural exploration. For those seeking a unique camping experience that merges water-based recreation with high desert landscapes, Northern Plains Campground provides a distinctive and memorable destination.
