About Camp Hale Memorial

Camp Hale Memorial Campground sits at an elevation of 9,200 feet, offering guests a wonderful setting for recreation and relaxation. Camp Hale is historic because the 10th Mountain Division, an unit of 15,000 men, trained here in mountaineering and skiing techniques during WWII. Some saw combat in Italy during the war. Most of the buildings have been torn down, but foundations and other "footprints" remain. The 99th Infantry Battalion (Viking Battalion) also trained at Camp Hale. There are interpretive signs along US Rt. 24, explaining the history and accomplishments of Camp Hale.

Number of accommodations: 17

Very secluded campground with lots of history. However, you could hear the highway from the campground because of the empty valley that the campground is in. With that being said the area was absolutely beautiful and there was a short hike to a small waterfall on the Colorado Trail just down the road. I found it on all trails

Camp Hale Memorial is a beautiful campground! Our site (#4) was nicely shaded, but with enough open area to enjoy the morning sun. The bathrooms were great and cleaned daily. (Best pit toilets ever!) The campground host was friendly and obviously kept the campground in good shape. The Continental Divide and Colorado trails are close to the campground, as are gravel roads for biking. And of course, the history of Camp Hale is impressive!

We really enjoyed our stay at Camp Hale. The grounds and bathroom were clean. It was nice to have picnic tables, a fire pit with grill and lockers at each camp site. There is zero cell service, which was a-okay but people should know before their visit.

This campground was a great location and very clean. Our particular site didn't have many trees, but the views across the valley were great. There was no tent pad at our site, but the long RV space was flat and worked out ok for a tent pad. Overall, we enjoyed our time there.
