About

Located just outside of the Manzano Mountain Wilderness in the Mountainair Ranger District sits Fourth of July Campground. Here, at the mouth of Tajique Canyon, visitors come to see the largest stand of Bigtooth Maples in New Mexico and enjoy the wooded campground and nearby trails. The campground has a mix of first come first served sites as well as reservable sites. The Albuquerque Trail, Crimson Maple Trail, and Fourth of July Trail are easily accessed from the campground and offer recreation opportunities. Many sites and communal areas offer shade from the various maple trees that turn bright oranges and reds in the autumn months. Birding, hiking, and horse riding are popular activities in and around the Fourth of July area.
