About Group Campgrounds in New Mexico
Group camping in New Mexico offers an extraordinary blend of high-desert landscapes, mountain forests, and cultural richness that creates unforgettable shared experiences across the Land of Enchantment. From the volcanic peaks of the Jemez Mountains to the alpine meadows of the Sacramento Range, New Mexico's diverse terrain provides spectacular backdrops for family reunions, scout troops, church groups, and friends gathering under some of the darkest night skies in America.
Best Time
Late May through September represents prime group camping season in New Mexico's mountain regions, with July and August offering the most reliable weather and fullest access to high-elevation campgrounds. Spring arrives late in the mountains—many campgrounds above 8,000 feet don't open until Memorial Day weekend due to lingering snow and muddy conditions.

Tips & Recommendations
- 1Reserve group campgrounds through Recreation.gov as early as possible—popular sites like Upper Fir Group Area and Clear Creek Group Campground book solid for summer weekends within hours of the reservation window opening six months in advance.
- 2Designate a group leader to handle the reservation and communicate site-specific rules, as many group campgrounds have strict quiet hours and capacity limits that are actively enforced.
- 3Bring extra water containers since group sites often have limited spigots for large numbers of people, and consider a water filtration system as backup.
- 4Pack layers regardless of season—mountain temperatures can swing 40 degrees between afternoon and night, and sudden thunderstorms can drop temperatures quickly.
