Hahns Peak Lake Campground

Hahns Peak Lake Campground invites campers with its striking views of a forested lakeshore, the serene 160-acre Hahns Peak Lake, and the towering 10,774-foot Hahns Peak in the backdrop. Located at 8,500 feet in the Routt National Forest, this campground offers a peaceful retreat with well-spaced sites, pristine lake access, and a connection to Colorado’s alpine beauty.

This intimate campground consists of 23 single-family sites and 3 group sites, all equipped with picnic tables and fire grates, ensuring a comfortable stay for both tent and RV campers (up to 30 feet). The setting of spruce, pine, and fir is complemented by seasonal wildflowers, creating a picturesque environment. Boating (electric or non-motorized), fishing, and hiking are key draws, with the nearby West Side Lake Trail providing a scenic one-mile loop along the shore. Additional recreational options, such as mountain biking and off-road trails, cater to outdoor enthusiasts looking for adventure. Vault toilets and trash disposal are available, but campers should plan to pack their own water.

Situated just 30 miles north of Steamboat Springs, the campground is close to other attractions like Steamboat Lake State Park, offering further hiking, fishing, and boating opportunities. Its peaceful atmosphere and stunning natural surroundings make Hahns Peak Lake Campground a perfect choice for weekend getaways or extended vacations in Colorado’s alpine wilderness.
