About Bonito Campground (AZ)

Bonito Campground is located 18 miles northeast of Flagstaff, near Sunset Crater/Wupatki National Monument. Elevation is 6,900 feet. Bonito Campground is named for the Bonito Lava Flow which oozed across this high desert plain some 900 years ago. That river of liquid rock, now frozen forever, is just one of the many remnants of volcanic activity which lend an otherwordly appearance to this starkly beautiful place.

Very good FS campground near Flagstaff, AZ. Paved access from Hwy 89. Mostly level pad and the sites are well spaced apart. Clean bath house with flush toilets. Direct trail access from campground to Sunset Crater NM.

During the week, Bonito Campground is always peaceful and quiet at night. The campsites are well spaced and neat and tidy. The restrooms have running water and flush toilets. Campground hosts are usually very cordial and accommodating. Cell Phone service is sketchy at best, If you hold your phone at just the right place you might get one bar.

Beautiful spots with lots of room in between, no services. No dump station and not way to get water unless you use a bucket

Good CG to stay in if passing thru or need to be close to Flag. Spaces far enough apart. No dump. Far enough off Hwy to not hear traffic.
