Motorcycle-Accessible Campgrounds in ColoradoCamping when you're traveling on your motorcycle is a bit more tricky than when you’re in a car, but it can certainly be done if you bring the right gear. Then the issue arises of taking your laden street bike over rough roads to get to the campground. There are other campgrounds along some of these roads but they have not been included because getting to them might be tough on a bike not intended for dirt. The Colorado campgrounds featured here are all guaranteed to have good roads leading into and through them. This list is not all-inclusive (yet!) but it will grow as time permits. You can help by sending any information you have about any campsites in Colorado that are not included but should be. To get a visual idea as to the location of these campgrounds, go to the sectional maps of the state and look for the campground icons along the highlighted roads. KOAs and other private campgrounds are not listed. Just FYI, most of this information should be up to date. It is now March 2019 and I just updated all the campgrounds. Nevertheless, I suggest you check before coming to make sure a particular campground is open. Due to federal budget cuts, the US Forest Service has closed quite a few campgrounds around the state. For a little more assistance, I have added grid indicator numbers to each of these so those less familiar with the state will more easily see where each of these groups is. The grid numbers are based on this grid: Campgrounds along US 40 over Berthoud Pass (Grid 7)» Idlewild
Campground Campgrounds along county roads over Cottonwood Pass (Grid 10)» Cold
