Shrine Pass Road | Wild Camping

August 11th, 2022 by lemonlady

The spots here were all full when we arrived, but if you keep driving on Shrine Pass Road, there are some cool spots along the meadow just past the trailhead. We ended up staying a few nights, super quiet and beautiful. Not very good cell service with Verizon.

seasonal road open during the summer months. off the exit with the Vail pass rest area. steep road up, but doable with my f250 and truck camper in 2wd. a few spots along the road up the hill, maybe 5-8 sites after the top of the hill/parking lot. little to no TMobile with a booster. starlink works great.

We went a bit past the toilets and found a spot with three fire pits. Was very quiet and beautiful

Tried to stay here but the snow / slush / ice was pretty bad on the way in. We then figured we’d stay in the rest area right at the same exit but it has one hour parking signs and is closed for the season. Just check the weather before you plan on this place! We’re moving elsewhere now.

We loved staying here! There is actually a lot of camping before you get to the trail head. The road up is dirt and a little washboard, but we had NO problem at all in our 25-foot Winnebago Class C Motorhome. This is such a convenient location, 20 minutes to Vail, Frisco or Silverthorne. We had great Verizon wireless. We work from the road and had no connectivity issues. The road is busy during the day with ATVs and vehicles driving up to the trail head, but its a small price to pay for gorgeous, FREE views! Highly recommend this spot.

Shrine Pass Road closed as of June 12. many if the forest service roads open around June 21/22 in the area, so I would suspect it may be open then. we continued down the road to the right and parked in a gravel lot near the lake instead.

Quiet parking lot in National Forest. Some ATVs are on the road until late in the evening, otherwise quiet. Great view, nice meadows and forests. Some hiking trails around. Good for a walk with our dog.
Good AT&T coverage.
