Free Wyoming RV camping is available throughout the state. National Forest and BLM administered lands offer “dispersed camping.” This term is often referred to as “boondocking,” but what it means is that you can camp anywhere on public lands for free unless otherwise restricted. Restriction reasons can be for the protection of wildlife, delicate resources, heavily used areas, etc. Locations closed to camping are signed, but if you are unsure or wish to verify dispersed camping areas, contact the local USFS (US Forest Service) Ranger District or BLM (Bureau of Land Management) Field Office for details. The following list is only an example of free and low-cost Wyoming RV camping locations.
