Flagstaff Camping: Campgrounds, Dispersed Camping & BLM

Okay, listen up! We ALL LOVE our camping, cooler temps, and forest adventures in Flagstaff. The Valley is getting hot and the weekend exodus seems to be increasing in numbers and so is the amount of time spent sitting in traffic on I-17. Not to mention, campsites (even dispersed camping areas) are full, crowded, and blooming with Charmin-lilies, unfortunately.

PLEASE CAMP RESPONSIBLY

  • Dispose of ALL waste appropriately, responsibly, and considerately.
    That means TAKE ALL YOUR TRASH BACK OUT WITH YOU and dispose of your human waste like a good human. If you have ANY doubt on what this means, please read the following article:
    How to Properly Poop in the Woods »
  • Follow Fire Restriction Rules
    This is NOT a suggestion. If you don't know the rules, restrictions, or how to properly put out a fire during that small, teeny-tiny window of the summer that fires are allowed, please, for the love of the cute animals, our environment, air quality, future of our planet - just don't have a fire at all. Forest Service Rangers are patrolling and will fine you for breaking these rules. Fines start around $300.

General Camping Info

There are several campgrounds in the Flagstaff area to choose from. The campgrounds listed below are typically open during the months of May-October, which means a camp host is there to collect campsite payment as well as maintain the restroom facilities and drinking water supply. Once the campground is "closed" it is still available for free public use providing the road is open, but restrooms and drinking water will no longer be provided. If you'd like to check the availability of a campsite that does take reservations or would like to reserve group camping, you can do so by calling 877-444-6777.

There are over 12 million acres of BLM Public Lands in Arizona to visit, enjoy and explore along with 17.5 million subsurface acres within the state. Camping is free on BLM land, but there are fees and permits required for certain recreational activities. Aravaipa Canyon, Paria Canyon and Coyote Buttes are three areas that require visiting/camping permits in order to preserve the areas' delicate ecosystem. When visiting BLM, please practice "Leave No Trace" etiquette as this land is rarely maintained on a regular basis.

Dispersed Camping

Please familliarize yourself with Dispersed Camping rules.
