Wyoming is a vast, open country sprinkled with sagebrush, pronghorn antelope and an air of freedom unmatched anywhere else in the lower 48.
Campers have plenty of space to explore in Wyoming. There are fewer than five human residents per square mile… five national forests, more than 18 million acres of public land and numerous wilderness areas.
More than 150 private RV parks offer campers the full scope of services from hot shower to cable TV hookups and swimming pools. Many cities and counties provide spaces at a reasonable rate, as do 11 state parks sites. The U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management sites add another 200 or so to the campground inventory of Wyoming. Camping is allowed in both Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks as well.
