Gila National Forest maintains Kingston Campground just off the highway near the small town of Kingston, New Mexico, where a seasonal creek runs alongside the few available sites. The campground has a vault toilet and trash service, and no fee to camp. No pets are allowed. Summer heat makes the elevation uncomfortable for some visitors, but the site works well as a lower-elevation fallback when higher spots in the Gila are snowed in or inaccessible. Small rigs and trailers can likely fit, though only a handful of sites exist. Campers wanting more options in the area can browse camping near Hillsboro or consider nearby Iron Creek Campground further up the range.
