    Lander City Park

    thank you Lander ...

    ... for this just wonderful spot! Clean, shady, and quiet next to a small river and within walking distance to the downtown district with great restaurants and bars. And it's free for 3 nights (donations welcome). Flat gravel spots for several even large RV's, most with picnic tables, restrooms, and huge grassy areas for tents as well.

    Popo Agie Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    Riverside nooks in a state park adjoining national forest - a hiking and cl

    I was looking to avoid Yellowstone because I’m traveling with a dog. I looked for national forest land that would take me around. Sinks Canyon State Park was perfectly placed so we headed here. The visitor center was very helpful and pointed us to a few camping options. I asked which one the ranger preferred and he went to Popo Agie right away. 

    The campground is right on the road - 20 feet over and 20 down. However the road only goes to the state park and into national forest. The roar of the river (20 feet to the other side) masks the minimal vehicles. 

    Augie, the camp host, immediately waved me over. We talked about my teardrop and his bus conversion. He pointed to the last two spots with shade. One was taken so I took site 5. 

    The site is a straight paved line. There is a wood chip square for a tent. The fire pit and picnic table are on a gravel pad. Just beyond that is the river. What a wonderful sound to relax to!

    There is a group camp closer to town and another state park campground further down the road. Is those are full, national forest campgrounds are further on but the pavement ends. There are yurts interspersed with the campsites. Vault toilets and garbage/recycling bins are nearby. Water is down the entrance road in one central location. 

    Hiking trails start across the bridge in camp. You can also drive down the road and find more challenging routes. A playground is by the group site. 

    An interesting discovery is to see where the river sinks into the ground and then reappears a quarter mile down the mountain. Dye tests show it takes 2 hours to go the distance - leaving speculation as to what happens in between. The heat was in during the day - 97 in town and a few less in camp. It cools down to the 50’s overnight. The sites have diverse configurations. This is a great place - just get a site with some shade.

    Jim Moss Arena Campground

    Views for miles

    The hosts are amazing. They bend over backwards to make you feel welcome and comfortable. They even brought a wifi repeater and installed next to our camper to insure we had a good signal. 20/30/50 amp available. Community water spicket. Shower- rustic and super clean. Large gathering spot to include fire pits, grill, tables. Stars for miles. The resident poodle, Griz, greets you daily. The Wind River Mountains are about 45 min. away. Worth the trip. PRO TIP: Do the waterfall hike. 3.4 mi. Round-trip. Hiking along the river canyon.

    Jim Moss Arena Campground

    Quiet and beautiful ranch

    This is an amazing property. We stayed one night along the back fence. There were a few open sites all with 30 amp, and two with 50 amp. There was water next to the electric and a dump station on the way out. The owners invited us up onto the porch of the house where we also met the caretaker and other campers.

    It is 20 minutes outside Riverton, WY for any fuel, groceries, food etc.

    Sinks Campground — Sinks Canyon State Park

    Winter Amazing

    We have stayed in the Sinks yurt system many times, but winter is our favorite. There is electricity, spotty internet and a heater you can turn on. 10 below zero outside and we keep it at about 45-50 deg inside. Super clean, very well maintained. You are required to clean well before you leave. Sleeping on mattresses/bunks or fold out futon mattress. Also inside is a small table and chairs, pine carved furniture. Broom, mop, cleaning supplies are provided. When we have stayed in Winter, no other soul is there. The park plows and shovels before your arrival. The Milky Way is spectacular on a clear night. Photos below are both winter and summer. In the summer, you can hear rocks and boulders rolling in the Popo Agie River (Pronounced "Puh- Po Shuh" (two words). There are 4 yurts that sleep up to 6, and one very large yurt that sleeps 12. Picnic tables, pit toilet, fire ring, trash bin nearby. In the winter, bring your own wood. Many good hikes in summer and a few trails to XC ski or snowshoe in the winter. 

    You can shower at the city pool on 9th Street for a small fee.

    Sleeping Bear RV Park & Campground

    Good location

    This RV Park and campground is about a mile outside of Lander Wyoming. The town is small but has wonderful small town charm. The campground is fairly large but the sites are close together. They have pull through, back in, and pull in sites. The pull in sites do have hook ups and they are not on the "wrong side" but that is designed for pull in units like small RVs or conversion vans. There are a couple tent sites with little to no shade and are really just gravel plots. The wifi is good and I had good service with Verizon. Nice bathroom and laundry facilities. I can see this campground being very crowded in the summer.


Guide to Lander

Lander, Wyoming sits at 5,360 feet elevation where the Wind River Mountains meet the Great Plains. Summer temperatures typically range from 45-85°F with frequent afternoon thunderstorms in July and August. RV camping near Lander offers access to rock climbing routes in Sinks Canyon, fly fishing in the Popo Agie River, and hiking trails throughout the Wind River Range.

What to do

Hiking in Sinks Canyon: Access trail networks directly from Popo Agie Campground where campers can explore riverside paths. "Hiking trails start across the bridge in camp. You can also drive down the road and find more challenging routes," notes reviewer Art S.

Fly fishing spots: The Popo Agie River runs adjacent to camping areas with swift currents and trout fishing opportunities. One camper at Popo Agie Campground shared, "We tent camp and did site 20… it is on the river feet from our tent… loved hearing the river."

Mountain biking: Trails connect from camping areas into the surrounding mountains. A visitor mentioned the "very cool suspension bridge crossing the Popo Agie that takes you to a hiking/mountain biking loop in the forest."

Wildlife viewing: Watch for moose near campsites and large trout at the Rise viewing area. "The Rise is about another half mile away and has the biggest trout I've ever seen!" writes a Popo Agie camper.

What campers like

Free camping options: Lander City Park allows free stays up to three nights. "We couldn't believe everything Lander had to offer and it was just a short walk from where we were camping along the creek. There are nearby walking trails, picnic areas and a playground in the park," reports Carlyne F.

Riverside campsites: Many sites back up to flowing water for natural white noise. One camper at Lander City Park noted, "The Popo Agie River runs next to the park which makes for a nice sound machine to fall asleep to."

Easy town access: Campers appreciate the walkability to Lander's amenities. "It's right in town so you get excellent service and you can go snag something to eat if you are tired of boiling water for cup o noodles," writes Tate W. about Lander City Park.

Yurt rentals: For those wanting more comfort than tent camping. "I stayed in one of the yurts and loved it!" shares Shannon O. about Sinks Canyon.

What you should know

Weather patterns: Afternoon wind gusts can be substantial throughout the Lander area. A visitor at Highline Trail RV Park noted, "It was super windy at times in the afternoon. We even lost power for a few hours one evening because of the wind gusts."

Sprinkler schedules: Tent campers at city parks should be prepared for irrigation. "To achieve that lush & green with a few trees, totally unexpected. But there were sprinklers going off at 6pm when I arrived. They quit about 8. Now the question is will they go off in the morning? Yes they went off at 6am," warns Susan B. about Lander City Park.

Shower access: Find pay showers at recreation centers when staying at facilities without them. "If you need a shower head over to the Recreation Center and pay $5 for use of the facilities," suggests a Lander City Park reviewer.

Water quality concerns: Some campgrounds have reported water issues. One visitor to Twin Pines RV Park noted, "We hooked up to the water and when I tried to cook with it, the water smelled and had some stuff floating in it. It didn't seem safe to use."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Pioneer RV Park is located next to a golf course with family-friendly amenities. "This is an intimate RV park located next to a golf course with beautiful mountain views. It's close to downtown and all the amenities," writes Gary W.

Exploring the Sinks: Take kids to see where the river disappears underground and reappears downstream. "Just down the road about a mile is the Sinks and the Rise, where the Popo Agie River disappears into a cave at the base of the mountain and then miraculously reappears gushing out of the base of a mountain on the other side of the canyon."

State park activities: Wyoming residents pay reduced fees at state parks. "For Wyoming residents, cost is only $6.00 a vehicle. Not per site. It is $11 if you are from out of state which is still more reasonable than the surrounding forest service campgrounds," notes a Popo Agie Campground visitor.

Tips from RVers

Extension cord management: At Sleeping Bear RV Park & Campground, some sites have power pedestals on the door side. "The 50/30 AMP power was on the door side of our 5th wheel as this is a pull in site for motorhomes. Since our power cord was in the middle of our rig, we easily reached the post. If you could not reach they have 50 and 30 AMP extension cords."

Overnight convenience: Several campgrounds offer pull-through sites for easy setup during transit stops. "Spaces are big and spread out. Everything was clean and well maintained. Great spot for a stop on your trip or as a base camp for exploring the area," shares a reviewer at Highline Trail RV Park.

Connectivity considerations: Some campgrounds provide better internet access than others. One camper at Sleeping Bear noted, "WiFi works pretty well for campground wifi. Video calls and streaming were spotty and unreliable, but everything else worked just fine. We also switched over to our AT&T phone hotspot to help with internet speed at times during the work day."
