Five distinct campgrounds within Rabbit Valley were built for different user-types, from tent camping sites that retain a secluded feel to large group sites that can accommodate large RVs and trailers. See the “Recreation” section under the Facility Information tab to find a campground that will meet your needs. For each campsite, visitors need to read the allowable equipment section for vehicle length and number limitations for their selected site(s).
Please note, roads are not maintained and can be narrow and rough. Access to Knowles Overlook is through a dry stream bed and changes quickly with passing storms. 4-wheel drive and high clearance may be needed to access Knowles Overlook. The best sites for RVs are the Koniklos (Equestrian) and Fluffle campgrounds and select High North sites.

Visit Rabbit Valley for an amazing outdoor family adventure or to find solitude on an amazing landscape.
The newly expanded campsites and facilities are located with easy access to I-70 and within minutes of the City of Fruita and Grand Junction, Colorado for access to local amenities.
Fees associated with camping are directly invested in the maintenance, improvements, and development of the Rabbity Valley experience. Reservations are required for all camping within Rabbit Valley.

Campgrounds by User-Type
Fluffle Campground Groups sites with varying capacities that can accommodate up to five vehicles (see individual campsite descriptions for vehicle limitations). Sites can accommodate vehicles up to 60 feet in length. There are day-use trailer parking spaces and a 4-pen corral here as well. High North Campground Site one is a group use site that can accommodate vehicles up to 60 feet in length. Vehicles longer than 50 feet will want to consider approaching the campground from the north via Hwy-6 as the access road from I-70 requires navigating a tight switchback turn. All other sites can accommodate two vehicles of various lengths, see individual site details for vehicle length limitations. Koniklos (Equestrian) Campground This campground is intended to be used solely by visitors who visit Rabbit Valley for horseback riding. Each site has an individual corral. There are also 10 day-use parking areas and 2 corrals for day-use. Campsites can accommodate two vehicles up to 60 feet in length. The road to this campsite is through a rocky wash and is not easily accessed by low-clearance vehicles. Additional day-use parking and horse corrals are available at the Fluffle Campground. Jouflas Campground This campground is intended for tent camping. No group sites. The campground can not accommodate vehicles longer than 25 feet. Knowles Overlook Campground This campground is intended to be used by tent and 'overland' style campers. Maximum vehicle length is 30 feet - HIGH CLEARANCE AND 4X4 ARE STRONGLY RECOMMENDED. Be weather weary in visiting this campsite as access is through a wash. No group sites.
Rabbit Valley Area is nestled among scattered juniper trees at the edge of the Colorado Plateau. With scenic views of the Colorado River, the San Juan and La Sal Mountains, the Colorado National Monument, and the western flanks of the 10,000 ft. Grand Mesa - the largest flat-topped mountain in the world, make this a must-see area.
This area is known for its paleontological resources with the family friendly hike the “Trail Trough Time.” Here you can learn about this area’s history and experience dinosaur bones on the landscape through a self-guided interpretive hike.
Vegetation here is sparse, with only occasional green-ups and wildflower blooms following wet weather. Average annual precipitation is less than 10 inches. Temperature extremes range from below zero to 105 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures are more moderate during the spring and fall.
The Rabbit Valley Area is just west of Fruita CO, which serves as a hub for outdoor recreation on nearby public lands including the red-rock canyons of Colorado National Monument, and the rest of the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area (MCNCA) - home of the Kokopelli trail system, the Ruby-Horsethief section of the Colorado River, Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness and the Rabbit Valley recreation area.
The Monument and MCNCA along with the other public lands surrounding the Grand Valley - formed by the Colorado River flowing between Palisade to Loma - offer something for everyone, from scenic drives to hiking, horseback riding, biking, rafting, rock climbing, wildlife viewing, and off-roading. The Grand Valley is also well-known for its orchards, vineyards and wineries, and the distinct and vibrant communities of Palisade, Grand Junction, and Fruita.
From I-70, take exit 2 and turn south until you come to the BLM kiosk. Follow the map and directions to specific campgrounds and loops.
