About this campground
The Visitor Center is where you should start your visit to Florissant Fossil Beds. Please meet our Rangers in the Visitor Center to show your pass, if you have one, and/or purchase passes. We also have trail maps and information to plan your visit and Jr. Ranger activity books available. Inside the Visitor Center, you will find a museum with fossil exhibits, a theater to see the park film, and a bookstore. The Visitor Center has restrooms and a water fountain and bottle filling station.
