About
Overview
Hinman Campground is a gateway to the Mount Zirkel Wilderness along the Elk River Corridor with plenty of opportunities for hiking, hunting, biking, horseback riding, camping, fishing, river rafting and more. There are 12 campsites, 6 of which may be reserved. Remaining sites are first-come, first-served. At an elevation of 7,700 feet, Hinman lies in the mountains of the Park Range in the heart of the Routt National Forest near the Elk River which flows south to join the Yampa River. Hinman Campground offers the unique opportunity to observe forest succession in progress and will eventually return to a native lodgepole, spruce, and fir forest.
