Saddlehorn Campground, Campground in Colorado National Monument, United States.
Saddlehorn Campground contains three loops with 79 campsites situated among red rock formations and pinyon-juniper woodland at 5,500 feet elevation.
The campground, established within Colorado National Monument, has provided accommodation for visitors exploring the desert landscape since the early 20th century.
The grounds serve as a central point for cyclists, hikers, and photographers documenting the red sandstone formations and observing desert wildlife.
Campers can reserve spots through recreation.gov, with Loop B operating year-round and Loops A and C available seasonally from April through October.
Each campsite features charcoal-only grills due to strict fire regulations, and the grounds enforce specific quiet hours from 10 PM to 6 AM.
