Dog Canyon Campground — Guadalupe Mountains National Park
Carlsbad · 14 sites
Dog Canyon is a small, forested campground tucked into a secluded canyon on the north side of Guadalupe Mountains National Park at 6,300 feet, reached from the New Mexico side at the end of NM Highway 137. It is a 70-mile drive from Carlsbad, New Mexico, the nearest town, and about two hours from the Pine Springs Visitor Center on the Texas side. The quiet setting is good for relaxing, wildlife watching, and hiking, with trails from the campground climbing to Lost Peak and Marcus Overlook. The campground is open year-round and is busiest in spring and fall.

Juniper Campground — Bandelier National Monument
Los Alamos · 50 sites
Juniper Campground sits on the piñon-juniper mesa above Frijoles Canyon, just outside the Bandelier National Monument entrance station and a short drive from the trailhead down into the canyon where the ancestral Puebloan cliff dwellings are the park's main draw. All 50 sites sit at mesa-top elevation among juniper and piñon pine, with cool nights and wide-open high-desert skies for stargazing.
