Hero: Devils Head Campground Road - FS 300.Q
small-sr Icon

This trail in Pike National Forest is one of two paid camping areas at the base of the Devil's Head (FS 611) walking trail. This is a dirt road throughout that doesn't pose any risk in good weather. Some of the road is chewed up a little more and will require clearance though. Located off Rampart Range Road, Devil's Head was constructed in 1907 after the newly formed Forest Service decided to build seven fire lookouts along the Front Range of Colorado into Wyoming. Only three were actually built, and Devil's Head is the only one still in operation. Drive this trail and climb up to the top of the Devil's Head tower, and on a clear day, you can get 360-degree views of Colorado for over 100 miles.
