Campground Overview
About Yellow Pine Campground
Yellow Pine Campground offers a quintessential Wyoming forest camping experience, blending rustic charm with convenient access to outdoor adventures. This secluded gem boasts 19 well-maintained sites nestled among a picturesque mix of conifers and aspens, providing a tranquil retreat for nature enthusiasts. The campground's thoughtful layout strikes an ideal balance between privacy and community, with each site featuring a picnic table, fire ring, and grill for comfortable outdoor living.
Located just 30 minutes east of Laramie, Yellow Pine Campground serves as an excellent base for exploring the diverse landscapes of the Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest. The area is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering immediate access to the challenging Tie City trail system for mountain biking and cross-country skiing. Hikers and wildlife watchers will appreciate the proximity to numerous forest trails, where encounters with local fauna like elk, mule deer, and various bird species are common.
The campground's location makes it perfect for weekend getaways or extended vacations, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of southeastern Wyoming. While amenities are basic, including vault toilets and trash collection, the lack of water hookups and electricity contributes to a genuine off-grid experience. For those seeking a taste of local culture, the nearby Vedauwoo Recreation Area, known for its distinctive rock formations, offers world-class rock climbing and hiking opportunities within a short drive.
