About Kenosha Pass Campground

Kenosha Pass Campground is a small, conveniently-located campground heralded by backpackers on the Colorado Trail and by those looking for a scenic, mountain family getaway. Across the road from the campground entrance is the Kenosha Pass Interpretive Area, with an accessible interpretive trail showcasing wetlands and remnants of the South Park and Pacific Railroad. Kenosha Pass, the campground's namesake, is one of the nation's highest mountain passes, weaving over the spine of the Front Range from Jefferson to Grant. The route provides one of the primary access points to South Park, and boasts tremendous views of Mount Evans and Mount Bierstadt.

We had site 24 and it was pretty far away from the road, but we could still hear traffic at night. I read about this before going so I brought ear plugs and slept great. The spot was nice and quiet, though surrounded by others it still felt peaceful. The only downside was the bathroom was basically right on the site - every now and then the wind would bring the smell to our area. I probably wouldn't choose that specific site again bc of that - but I would totally come back to these campgrounds in the future. Overall the site was clean, quiet, near the Colorado Trail for a great hike.

Perfect location if you are hitting up the Colorado Trail. Clean, quiet, serene . . . we even had a teenage moose stroll through our campsite after dinner one event. Helpful and kind camp hosts, great location, will be back again.

We enjoyed our stay at Kenosha. The campgrounds were kept very clean and the rest rooms were exceptionally clean and had a pleasant smell. Kudos to Spike and Lauri.
