In the Land of Enchantment, there are numerous beautiful spots to pitch a tent, but this state park in Santa Fe holds a campground with an amenity that’s truly unique: yurts. “Yurt” might sound like a different language, but it’s actually an acronym for Year-round Universal Recreational Tent. These yurts can be rented out and they will protect you from any element, offer a unique and attractive interior, and ultimately serve as a purely magical spot to camp in instead of a tent. For an unforgettable yurt camping experience, head on over to this state park for the most unique campground in Santa Fe.

Hyde Park is a top destination in the summer, and one of the main reasons is the campgrounds.

Nestled in the forest are three different yurts. You’ll have to hike to each, as they offer far more privacy than your average campsite.

While the yurts will protect you from the elements, you’ll still be roughing it out here.
New Mexico Department of Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Website Each yurt can hold up to six guests and provides dense foam mattresses; however, there is no electricity. Propane heaters are provided.
Besides camping inside magical yurts, this park is home to dozens of New Mexico’s top trails.
