Darby Well Road

How sad so much glass. If everyone picks some up and removes with their trash maybe someday it will be clean.

This was our second time camping on Darby Well Rd. and we loved it just as much the second time around. There are tons of spots for RVs of all sizes and the amazing views filled with mountains and saguaros can't be beat. We especially loved the endless network of 4x4 roads for hiking and biking. The smuggling signs and border patrol ar... more

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. We had no issues at all. We came in on Darby Wells Road, and at the sign about smuggling etc we continued straight. We went about half a mile and found a great large spot for us and our 19ft. travel trailer on the right. (There are plenty of spots before the one we found, there are many at... more

We stayed here for a week after visiting Organ Pipe Cactus NM, which is an exceptional place to see. We ended up taking the last road to your left before you get to the much talked about 'sign' which is at an intersection of other roads. We drove down our road or a bit and then tucked away down into a nice spot. I chose this spot kn... more

There are some nice spots especially starting about 1 mile back. About 2am our first night there was a Border Patrol bust about 400 yards from camp (helicopters and all). Second day there was a beer drinking/target shooting group nearby. Traffic all day and some all night too (patrols). Kind of a neat area, but prefer to not hike with ... more

Drove in approximately 6 miles on Darby Well Road and camped at a perfect spot large enough for two large rigs and their tow vehicles. Road was in very good condition, one or two good size ruts, but no problem. And our sites were pretty level. We had unlimited hiking opportunities, awesome views and spectacular sunrises and sunsets...a... more

Beautiful area and we found a easy level site for the Moho! The dirt road in was a bit bumpy for the rig as we drove down approx 3 miles,Att was 4 bars with no problems. The scenery was beautiful but broken glass was a concern with the dogs. There was posted signage across from us about illegal crossing and activities possible beware. ... more

Darby Well Road offers some good camping sites. We're caravanning with two other rigs (both pretty large) which limited our options, but there are many scenic sites available if you're 25feet or less. There is plenty of space for larger rigs... just not as secluded. The area has a lot of broken glass. However, it's still beautiful d... more

While there are fewer open areas for boondocking along Darby Well road itself than there were a few years ago (thanks to the mining company erecting a fence along the west side of the road to keep trespassers from getting too close to the open pit remains), there are still plenty of great sites in this area. As a bonus, Verizon connec... more
