Really pretty campsite that’s only 1.5 miles in, so awesome for families. It’s also got way more availability that most RMNP backcountry sites. Follow our fulltime family travel adventures on IG at @kateophalen!
Views from Adam's Falls and if you go a bit further you can see multiple other photo spots. This trail has a photo OP spot about every mile of the hike.
Great views and easy to reach. A few groups of people walked through our campsite though.
Worth the hike to get here.
