Redondo Campground

Isolated amidst the rugged beauty of the Jemez Mountains, Redondo Campground sets itself apart with its picturesque blend of towering Ponderosa pines, open wildflower meadows, and an elevation of 8,200 feet that promises warm days and crisp, cool nights. Offering a peaceful escape without modern distractions, the campground features 62 first-come, first-served campsites equipped with picnic tables and fire rings, but lacks potable water, electric hookups, or a dump station, making it an ideal choice for those craving a more primitive camping experience.

Located within the Jemez National Recreation Area near Jemez Springs, the campground is a short drive from exceptional natural attractions such as the Valles Caldera National Preserve and Bandelier National Monument, both accessible via the scenic Jemez Mountains Trail (State Highway 4). Nearby, visitors can take advantage of abundant hiking, fishing in the San Antonio Creek, and exploring trails like Trail 137 or scenic overlooks such as the San Diego Overlook. With this rich tapestry of wilderness and quietude, Redondo Campground is perfect for weekend getaways and extended retreats into nature.
