Fourth of July Campground is a popular camping area 50 miles southwest of Albuquerque, with access to several trails that lead into the Manzano Mountains. The campground is only accessible to tents and pop-up campers as the area cannot accommodate larger RVs. The site is open from April to November but is most popular in the fall when the colors are popping. Surround yourself with brilliant reds, oranges, and yellows from the large stand of maple and oak trees!
