About
Ojo Redondo Campground is a free, primitive camping destination in the Zuni Mountains of Cibola National Forest, positioned southwest of Mt. Sedgwick, the highest peak in the range. At 8,900 feet elevation, the campground sits among ponderosa pine, Douglas fir, and aspen trees with a scenic meadow adjacent to the camping area. The campground offers dispersed-style camping with basic amenities. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and fire ring with grill for cooking. Vault toilets are provided, but there is no potable water or trash service, so campers must bring adequate water and pack out all refuse. Access requires travel on forest roads that can be affected by weather conditions. The campground serves as a base for hiking and mountain biking in the Zuni Mountains. The high elevation provides cool summer temperatures but can see early season snow.
Directions
Take Exit 53 at Thoreau and drive south on NM State Highway 612 past Bluewater Lake. The road becomes FR178 at the Forest boundary. Continue south on FR178 for 8 miles to the junction with FR480. Turn east (left) and drive two miles to the campground entrance on the right.
