    FAQs

    Can you drive a RV in Great Sand Dunes National Park? ›

    Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve is one of Colorado's best-kept secrets and is great for RVing, kids and even dogs. Located just three hours from Denver, the park is home to the tallest sand dunes in North America.

    Is Great Sand Dunes National Park worth it? ›

    Yes! With one day in Great Sand Dunes National Park you can climb the sand dunes, and sled or board down some of the sand dunes. While we recommend two or more days to fully explore the park and the surrounding area, you can do a lot in one day, and your visit will be worth it.

    How long should I stay in Great Sand Dunes National Park? ›

    Two to three days in the park is plenty to take in most of what the park has to offer. A day sledding on the dunes and a day or two for hiking and seeing the Zapata Falls. If you are able to be there at night, be sure to check out one of the free ranger-led night programs!

    Is there cell service at Great Sand Dunes National Park? ›

    Internet & Cellular Access

    The Great Sand Dunes and Sangre de Cristo Mountains are relatively remote wilderness areas, with limited connectivity to mobile phone service, and no wi-fi in or near the park.
