About this campground

The Espanola Ranger District includes the numerous trails within Los Alamos County that are on Forest Service managed lands. Many of these trails were consumed in the 2000 Cerro Grande Fire, and then again in the 2011 Los Conchas Fire.  Although much restoration has been accomplished, not all of the trails have been re-established.
