Easy Access, Fun Place

The best feature of this free camping area is the awesome metal sculptures right near this campground.

Near the cute town of Borrego Springs, just a little off Borrego Springs road. Not secluded by any means. Please use existing pull outs. Keep it clean so we can continue to enjoy this free spot.

It's one road in. The further back you go, the more privacy. I stayed fairly close to the front as I was only there one night.

Galleta Meadows - Rusty Creatures and Dark Skys

On the outer southern edge of Borrego Springs is this private yet free camp area.

A few dozen sites exist, each some five hundred feet or more apart. All have views of the surrounding mountains, and the wide open skies.

Borrego Springs is a dark sky community, which means lights are kept to a minimum, thus enabling great star viewing.

The area is renowned for its hiking and other outdoor activities. It is also known for its iron sculptures, which many exist within this camp area.
