GenieSummary
Water Canyon Campground is a great spot for an outdoor getaway. It is located just outside of Socorro, New Mexico and is a great place to explore the surrounding trails and rock faces across the canyon. There are about a dozen campsites, each with a picnic table, firepit and access to vault toilets. The campground is free, but there are plans in the works to start charging a fee of $10 per night per site. The road to the campground is bumpy and not suitable for trailers, but it is worth the drive to experience the beautiful views and the peaceful atmosphere. There are also plenty of hiking trails nearby, and the campground is a great spot for rock climbing in the Socorro area. Unfortunately, there is a lot of strange traffic at night, which may be related to drug deals, so it is important to be aware of your surroundings. Despite this, the campground is still a great spot for a peaceful and unplugged camping experience.
