Silver Bar Campground Access

Silver Bar Campground offers four primitive, walk-in tent-only sites on the banks of Maroon Creek, approximately 5 miles southwest of Aspen, with vault toilets, picnic tables, and bear boxes at each site.

Licensed anglers can fish directly in Maroon Creek along the eastern edge of the campground, and the location provides access to hiking and outdoor recreation in the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness Area.

A $10 vehicle pass is required in addition to the $15 nightly camping fee, and reservations must check in at the adjacent Maroon Bells Welcome Station within 24 hours.
