Great Sand Dunes National Park & Preserve

The tallest dunes in North America are the centerpiece in a diverse landscape of grasslands, wetlands, forests, alpine lakes, and tundra. Stay on a moonless night to experience countless stars in this International Dark Sky Park! Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week year-round. There are no timed entries or reservations to visit.

The view at the park entrance contrasts giant dunes and snow-capped mountains.

Use a designated campsite that permits your vehicle and equipment. Check the individual campground maximum lengths, access, generator rules and food-storage requirements; a parking area is not permission to sleep overnight.
