Get Away From It All At This Remote And Beautiful Campground In Arizona

Have you ever gone camping in Arizona? When the weather starts to heat up after a cold(ish) winter, campers love to pull their tents out of storage and find a place in the wilderness to settle into for the night. If you're someone who prefers spending time at a remote campground in Arizona, there's perhaps no better place than Buenos Aires Wildlife Refuge.

Set by the Arizona-Mexico border is the 117,464-acre Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. There is no fee to explore the refuge, and many of the trails are open for exploration 24 hours a day with the exception of Brown Canyon.

This wildlife refuge is home to a wide array of flora and fauna, perfect for those who love spending time in nature. Aside from viewing wildlife and birdwatching, hunting, hiking, and camping are among the activities you can enjoy here.

There is desert, grassland, wetlands, a river, cottonwoods, and willows found throughout the vast landscape.

And there are 2,100 miles of hiking trails here to explore it all, including a boardwalk trail. However, if you're looking for more adventure, how about finding one of the primitive campsites in the refuge?

Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge offers several campsites that are overseen by the Fish and Wildlife Service. There are both backpacking sites and RV sites available.

In all, there are 83 primitive campsites, so keep in mind that there are no amenities here. Campsites are marked with a camping symbol and a number. Camping here is free and no reservations are required.

Camping is also limited to 14 days within a 30-day period. You may also build a fire just as long as you use dead or downed wood you can scavenge and build the fire in the designated fire pit at your campsite.
