You don’t have to travel far to find a trail in Wyoming that leads somewhere spectacular: an overlook, a waterfall, a lake, a brilliant mountain setting … but with so many sights to see, you’re definitely going to want to spend a few days immersed in all of that wild and wonderful natural beauty! Of course, camping is great, but camping at a one-of-a-kind, waterfront campground that offers a front-row seat and easy access to some of Wyoming’s coolest sights is even better – especially when there’s no hike required to get there. For all these reasons and more, Firehole Canyon Campground near Green River is definitely one of the best campgrounds in Wyoming – and it’ll be obvious from the moment you pull up that this is one a fantastic place to spend a weekend in the great outdoors!
