(Fremont County, WY) – Hipcamp, “the world’s #1 app for finding and booking campsites,” recently shared its 2026 list of “50 Favorite Places to Camp in America Right Now,” which functions as a “curated guide to standout campsites across the U.S. ahead of the July 4 travel season.” Among the sites named, and Wyoming’s sole spot on the list, is the Sinks Canyon Campground in Sinks Canyon State Park.
“Drawing on Hipcamp’s platform of more than 500,000 campsites across every state, the 2026 list was selected by the Hipcamp team based on a range of criteria, including positive camper reviews and ratings, standout settings, regional diversity, cultural and travel trends, Host hospitality, and editorial debate,” the announcement release informs. “It is designed as a snapshot of places worth considering for summer camping, whether close to home or part of a bigger trip.”
Here’s what the Hipcamp crew had to say about Sinks Canyon Campground.
“Experience the natural beauty of the Popo Agie Wilderness and Sinks Canyon State Park to the max. Sinks Canyon Campground is a great home base for scenic driving, rock climbing and hiking all over. Hikers can watch the Popo Agie River do a magic trick, vanishing into a mountain and appearing again further along. This small but popular campground is located in an open area along this same river and Sinks Canyon Trail, easily accessible from the road and ideal for getting one’s bearings pre-adventure.”
“Travel can feel expensive right now, but people still need a real break,” Alyssa Ravasio, founder and CEO of Hipcamp, said in the announcement. “Camping is one of the simplest ways to step away from screens and feel connected with the world outside. This year’s 50 Favorites celebrates the many forms that kind of escape can take, and helps campers find a place that feels right for them this summer.”
