Basic and beautiful
Cañon City local here! Red Canyon Park is a Cañon City-owned "mountain park." Fun to explore by day through the little canyon or along the rocks above, there's a walk for everyone here. Best enjoyed in fall and spring, summer is quite hot. The campsites are basic and roadside. Some are more level than others. Several of the camps have easy access to some of the rock features to enjoy. A couple of things to be aware of: the road through the park can get rutted from time to time. And if it ends up raining a lot for our desert climate, the road can turn into a muddy mess. As well, Red Canyon Park has been known locally as a kind of party spot for the young crowd, hopefully not on the night you're there and not adjacent your site. There is a single vault toilet at the bottom of the canyon, but don't expect toilets at the sites.
Just what we were looking for!
This is a beautiful park with great dispersed sites! We went quite a ways in and found a site for our campervan. Needed leveling blocks but saw several occupied sites more level. Very secluded!

Great area
So many choices, with BLM on top. Few regular basic spots easy access, above 4wd for some spots. Beautiful views and a lot of exploring.
