Comment

Zapata Falls Campground.  The campground sits at 9,000 feet at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.  At 9,000 feet the campground has snow for 7 months of the year.  Snow and wind in early May are not unusual.  The campground is open all year with 23 small RV and tent sites.  It's located 10 miles south of the Great Sand Dunes National Park.  Pack it in, pack it out, no trash receptacles.  No drinking water.  Three mile dirt road into the campground.  Each spot has a picnic table and fire ring.  The campground has just 23 tent or small RV Camp spots.  Campbase recommends small RV's less than 25 feet for this campground since it's three miles out a rough dirt road.  The closest services are in downtown Alamosa located 30 miles to the west.  Alamosa has fuel, markets, restaurants, and services.  The campground usually fills up early on the weekends.  The campground has vault toilets.
