Scenic and rugged, the Red River Gorge has long been one of Kentucky’s most beloved playgrounds, and Red River Gorge camping offers the chance to call this playground home—at least for a night or two.
An elaborate canyon system along the Red River in the east-central part of Kentucky, Red River Gorge is a 29,000-acre archeological district teeming with sandstone cliffs, waterfalls, natural bridges, and rock shelters. Visitors flock to the area for world-class climbing, icy cold swimming holes, and hiking and backpacking trails.
Red River Gorge camping is the perfect way to experience all that the Red River Gorge has to offer. Luckily for campers, there are a number of Red River Gorge campgrounds to choose from. In addition to the campgrounds listed below, dispersed camping in the general forest area of the gorge is also permitted.

Available on a first come, first served basis, Koomer Ridge Campground is the only developed Red River Gorge camping available on forest service land. The forested campground has 54 tent camping sites and 15 sites that can accommodate RVs up to 35 feet though there is no water or electric hookups and no dump station. The campground is open all year long and is conveniently located to 4 hiking trails.
“The campground… is a beautiful area on a hillside and there are many terrain features that make this place feel different from ordinary campground sites. We stayed in the back section, which is a bit elevated, almost a plateau area in Site 34. The sites are not on top of each other and offer better than average privacy compared to many other locations I’ve been to.” —The Dyrt camper Kyle H.

2. Red River Adventure Campground
The only riverside campground in the Red River Gorge, Red River Adventure Campground is a privately-owned campground on 10 acres of the tree-lined banks of the Red River. The campground is primitive, without power or water hookups, but great for campers that love to play on the water—there’s a canoe and kayak take-out on-site. Located in the heart of the Red River Gorge, this campground makes a great home base for exploring.
“What a nice quiet secluded spot. Such a friendly staff, reasonable prices, and well-maintained campground. We spent a great day in the river and an even better night in our hammocks!” —The Dyrt Camper Josh J.
3. Lago Linda
Popular with rock climbers, Lago Linda Campground is a privately-owned campground offering 35 campsites conveniently located to some of Red River Gorge’s best routes. Each campsite has water, and electricity can be purchased for $2. The nearby bathhouse provides hot showers and flush toilets. An on-site country café is a great place to hide out in inclement weather or to grab a snack before a day on the trails.
“Lago Linda’s is located in the Red River Gorge area, which makes it a great location for rock climbers to camp. It’s about a 15-minute drive to Muir Valley. The campground has flush toilets and showers, although they aren’t maintained the best. When we stayed there was one toilet in both the men’s and women’s restroom that was out of order. There is a nice cooking pavilion, drinking water on every site, and electric at the sites and pavilion. There’s also an indoor game room/reading area with a small library and board games. The pond is pretty clean and nice for a quick swim after a day of climbing.” –The Dyrt Camper Jess O.

Well-known as a top climber’s destination, Land of the Arches (aka LOTA), is a great campground with bathrooms, hot showers, free WiFi and an indoor recreation area with air hockey and table tennis where campers can entertain themselves on a rainy day. LOTA offers tent and hammock camping, a limited number of RV campsites with electric hookups and a dump station, and “indoor camping” for those that don’t quite feel like roughing it.
“This is in the heart of the Red River Gorge and super close to Muir Valley. Great climbing campground that is fairly affordable ($8 per person per night). The only thing is they don’t allow dogs, except at the annual Rocktoberfest festival.” —The Dyrt Camper Theresa D.

The campground has coin-operated showers, laundry machines, and two covered pavilions for cooking.
“For a few bucks per carload, Miguel’s camping spot contains a few open field areas situated between the Climbing Gear Shop and the famous pizza spot. A true hippie haven and Appalachian favorite, the compound also boasts three covered shelters, a basement area for a relaxing hangout, a half court for basketball, and few token-operated shower stalls, and a half dozen toilets. Miguel’s is generous with prices and with trust.” –The Dyrt Camper Tracy Jo I.

“For a little privacy stay in the back of the campground. Most spots are level, paved (or packed gravel). Shower room was nice and pretty clean.
