Glacier Basin Campground is located in Rocky Mountain National Park adjacent to Estes Park, Colorado. It is near the Beaver Meadows Entrance on Highway 36 and is an ideal location to base your stay in the park. There is a shuttle bus stop in the campground and the campground is located across the street from Park & Ride, the park's main shuttle system hub. The shuttle system provides access to many park trailheads throughout the Bear Lake cooridor and to the town of Estes Park.
Due to the pine beetle epidemic all the trees in C Loop, D Loop and the Group Loop have been removed, so there is little to no shade in these areas. The tree removal has however opened up beautiful views of the mountains.
The campground will have sites in Loop C, Loop D, and the Group Loop available by reservation for the 2010 season.
Sites in Loop A and Loop B will be available on a first-come-first-served basis for the 2010 season.
There are three types of sites in Glacier Basin Campground: ⢠Standard Non-Electric - Accomodate Tents, RVs, trailers, vans, or pickup campers ⢠Tent Only Non-Electric - Accommodate TENTS ONLY! ⢠Group Tent Only Non-Electric - 13 sites accomodate between 9 and 40 people; TENTS ONLY!
