About Camping in Wyoming
Camping in Wyoming offers an unparalleled wilderness experience across some of America's most dramatic and diverse landscapes, from the granite spires of the Laramie Range to the towering peaks of the Tetons and Bighorns. The state's campgrounds provide gateways to iconic national parks, pristine wilderness areas, and remote high-country destinations where wildlife outnumbers people and dark skies reveal the Milky Way in stunning clarity.
Best Time
Wyoming's camping season runs primarily from late May through September, with specific timing varying significantly by elevation and region. Lower-elevation campgrounds like Vedauwoo (7,200 feet) typically open by mid-May and remain accessible through October, while high-country destinations above 8,500 feet may not be snow-free until late June and can close by mid-September.
