Twin Eagles Campground

Isolated in the rugged beauty of Colorado's Pike National Forest, Twin Eagles Campground offers an authentic back-to-nature experience with its nine primitive campsites, perfect for campers seeking solitude, stunning wilderness, and easy trail access. At an elevation of 8,600 feet, this quiet, year-round campground is exclusively first-come, first-served, ensuring a tranquil atmosphere free of crowded reservations. Its standout feature is the direct proximity to the Twin Eagles Trailhead, gateway to the expansive Lost Creek Wilderness via the Brookside-McCurdy Trail, renowned for its granite formations, diverse landscapes, and wildlife.

Located 14 miles north of Lake George along County Road 77, Twin Eagles is equipped with basic amenities like picnic tables, fire rings, and vault toilets, though it lacks water and trash services, so visitors must pack in all supplies and pack out waste. For avid hikers, the trailhead provides opportunities for loop trips through dramatic wilderness backdrops, while nearby Tarryall Reservoir, just a short drive south, offers fishing and serene water views, making this campground an ideal base for both day hikes and immersive weekend getaways.
