Buckhorn Camp is located in the mountains west of Fort Collins.

  • To drive to the camp from I-25 take the Highway 14 Exit (269B) and head west into Fort Collins.
  • Turn North on US 287 (College Avenue) and follow it as it swings west out of town. Do not take the US 287 Exit to Laramie, but continue 2 miles to LaPorte; look for a rustic restaurant called Vern's on your right.
  • Turn west at this intersection and cross the Cache La Poudre River and drive through Bellvue.
  • Continue west (uphill) through scenic Rist Canyon for approximately 12 miles.
  • When you reach the very top of a steep winding section of road, turn left / South on CR-41.  Landmarks include a row of mailboxes just passed the drive and that you're at the very top of the ridge.
  • Follow this road for another ½ mile to a closed gate on the right. Please make sure you have the gate code before coming.  If not many are able to find cell service at the mailboxes.
  • You're almost there so don't give up now, you only have another 1.7 miles to go.
  • Take this last section slowly as it is scenic and in some places rough and narrow.
  • Keep on the lookout for wildlife and other travelers. It is wise to allow 1 hour from Fort Collins to reach Buckhorn Camp.
Enjoy the drive as well as your stay. If you need further instructions, please call us at (970) 484-9815.  

We'd love to hear from you! Contact director@buckhorncampCO.org or give us a call: 970.484.9815
