Lost Park Campground
Lost Park Campground, near Jefferson, Colorado, is a fantastic location for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With its stunning natural surroundings, this area offers a chance to immerse yourself in the great outdoors, whether you're pitching a tent or parking your RV.
The campground is known for its beautiful scenery and ample opportunities for dispersed camping, allowing you to find a secluded spot to set up camp. Visitors have raved about the long, bumpy road leading in, which adds to the adventure. As one camper noted, “We found an awesome spot off the main road about 11 or 12 miles in.” This place is perfect for those who want to feel like they’re truly away from it all.
Wildlife is a highlight here, with moose sightings being a favorite among campers. The area is also great for your furry friends, as dogs can roam freely and enjoy the outdoors. Just be prepared for a bit of a rugged drive; a sturdy vehicle is recommended to tackle the switchbacks.
For those who appreciate breathtaking views, the drive over Kenosha Pass during the fall is a must-see, especially when the aspens are turning. Whether you're hiking, exploring, or just soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, Lost Park Campground offers a memorable experience for anyone looking to connect with nature.
