Chaco Culture National Historical Park New Mexico

Chaco Culture National Historical Park Overview

Gallo Campground is located within Chaco Culture National Historical Park and next to petroglyphs, a cliff dwelling and ancient inscriptions. There are 33 single-family campsites.

Two group campsites are also available, each accommodating 10 to 30 people and no more than 5 vehicles. Group stays are limited to seven days at a time.

Campsites 12-16 are for RVs (tent camping not permitted). All other sites can accommodate tents, trailers and RVs. Each site also has a table, fire ring/grill. There are no trees or shade structures to offer shade. Amenities include drinking water, flush toilets and a dump station from March through October, then vault. Cell service is not available in the area.
