Location Information
A clear mountain stream flows right through this campground on the west side of the Chiricahuas. Sycamore Campground is located on the banks of Turkey Creek, a small perennial stream that flows out of the midsection of the Chiricahuas. The creek cascades into the campground down a series of small waterfalls and through a rocky cleft decorated with wildflowers. This little alcove makes a great place to spend some quiet moments listening to the babble of the creek and contemplating the beauty of the place.These sycamore and oak-shaded sites are located near the end of Turkey Creek Road and the the jumping off place into the Chiricahua Wilderness. A number of trails start in the vicinity of the campground and climb to destinations and connecting trails high in the mountains. If you are a hiker or horseback rider, you will find this an excellent base of operations with enough nearby trail miles to keep you busy for some time. Sycamore Campground is located 43 miles southeast of Wilcox and has five campsites.
