Getting Outdoors

Many people who go RV camping at Staunton State Park do so in the hope of spotting some of the diverse range of wildlife that lives in the park. Stay very quiet, and you have a good chance of glimpsing some incredible creatures, including black bear, moose, elk, mountain lion, coyotes, deer, fox, and a huge range of birds. Certain species prefer different conditions and times of the year, so do a little research and pack your binoculars and you never know how much you will see. Head to the visitors center for a range of interpretive nature programs and information.

Over 30 miles of scenic trails are located in the park and are one of the best ways to explore the diverse landscape. These trails are multi-use, meaning you could pull on your hiking boots and take to the trails on foot, hop on a bike, ride a horse or make use of one of the park's track chairs, a type of wheelchair that is suitable for tougher terrain. The rock-climbing area offers more than 80 routes for those that have a passion for climbing, with some exciting and challenging assents available.

Many anglers also head to the park in the hope of a catch. There are three fishing ponds to choose from, some of which require a short hike to reach. Two of the ponds are regularly stocked up with trout, while Elk Falls Pond has plenty of native brook trout, so there is plenty for everyone.

Camping at Staunton State Park

Currently, the park only offers walk-in tent camping. However, there are plenty of places to go camping with an RV near Staunton State Park. Buffalo Campground is located at an elevation of 7,500 feet, with plenty of trails in the surrounding area. All sites come with picnic tables, campfire rings, and grills, and vault toilets are available. This primate camping experience will allow you to get closer to the great outdoors.

Echo Lake Campground is another good option. It is a small campground with only 11 sites designated to RV camping and a few available for tent camping. Each site has a campfire ring and picnic table for a lazy evening under the stars.
