This scenic east-west canyon offers ample outdoor opportunities for hiking and primitive camping. Not only a destination for hikers, the Canyon offers outstanding opportunities for photographers. Millions of years of Earth’s history unfold in San Lorenzo Canyon, a picturesque area of sandstone cliffs, arches, and hoodoos.

    Welcome to San Antonio Bosque Park, a dispersed camping area near San Antonio, New Mexico. This spot is perfect for those looking for a no-frills, free place to crash for a night or two. It's right along the Rio Grande and close to the Bosque Del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, which is a fantastic place to see sandhill cranes and other migratory birds.

    The area is pretty basic—don't expect any amenities like water, toilets, or trash service. You'll need to pack out everything you bring in, including your trash and, yes, even your poo. There are a few picnic tables and fire rings, but keep in mind that fire restrictions are often in place, so check before you light up.

    The sites are easy to access, even for larger trailers, but the place can get a bit overgrown with tall weeds and plenty of mosquitoes. The road noise from Highway 380 is noticeable, but it shouldn't bother you too much if you're just looking for a quick stopover.

    Cell service is solid here, with good coverage from all three major carriers. It's a convenient spot if you need to be near civilization, with Socorro just 15 minutes away for any supplies you might need.

    Some campers have mentioned seeing black bear scat around, so keep your food secured and be bear-aware. Despite its simplicity, this area offers a peaceful night's rest under the cottonwoods, with the added bonus of being free. If you're passing through and need a place to stay, San Antonio Bosque Park is a decent choice.

      San Antonio Park is the southernmost park and is adjacent to the Hwy 380 Bridge. This park has 5 tables, 5 grills and is located in a beautifully restored Bosque that is about 60 years old (it dates from the last major flood of the Rio Grande in the 1940’s). San Antonio Elementary School adopted the park in 2007 and uses the park as an outdoor classroom and community service project. The site is also maintained by citizens of San Antonio who use the park for evening strolls along the river. The cottonwood stand was restored by removing the salt cedar, burning the slash and then treating the re-sprouts with herbicide (a common method to control the re-sprouting of salt cedar roots).
