Campsite booking platform Hipcamp launched free public lands maps to find and book available campsites in the U.S. that are on or near points of interest on public lands.
“We’ve made it simple to find free places to pitch a tent on BLM lands and national forests and to discover the best Hipcamps near our most-loved National Parks and other treasures like wildlife refuges, grasslands, and monuments,” said Hipcamp CEO Alyssa Ravasio.
The interactive maps show all 424 National Park Service unit boundaries, entrance gates and visitor centers. Campers can select from Hipcamp’s 600,000 available U.S. sites to find stays within driving distance of the Hoodoos at Bryce Canyon National Park or discover getaways near less crowded destinations like Florida’s Dry Tortugas National Park. Birders and anglers can use the maps to discover tent camping, RV sites, cabins, and other stays near bird sanctuaries and scenic rivers. Other free map layers include International Dark Skies Maps, Indigenous territories across the U.S. and detailed data coverage maps from cell providers like Starlink, AT&T and Verizon.
