Pikes Peak Ranger DistrictPike and San Isabel National Forests

Springdale Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Pikes Peak Ranger District of the Pike and San Isabel National Forests, about 1.7 miles east of Woodland Park on Rampart Range Road (FDR #300). It has 13 sites and is a standard, non-electric campground. Firewood, shelter and water are not provided, so visitors must bring these supplies with them. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 74°F with lows near 47°F, while winter highs stay in the low 30s. Vault toilets are the only facility. A fee is charged, and dates of operation are weather dependent. Nearby, the Flatland Trail (South) and Middle Ridge Trail are both within about a mile and a half. Woodland RV Park and the Woodland Park Boulders (The Corridor) climbing area are also close by.
