Santa Fe National Forest now offering ‘Scan and Pay’ system at some campgrounds
SANTA FE, N.M. (KRQE) – Starting Memorial Day weekend, the U.S. Forest Service is testing a pilot program for making campground payments. The pilot program will be at the Vista Linda and Redondo Campgrounds in the Santa Fe National Forest.
The program, called “Scan and Pay” offers an optional payment system to pay campground fees. To use the system, visitors scan a QR code at the campground kiosk that lets them pay through recreation.gov.

The U.S. Forest Service says they hope to eventually expand the payment system to additional campgrounds. But if visitors want to continue to pay with cash at the campground, that’s still an option the Forest Service says.
Vista Linda and Redondo Campgrounds are open for Memorial Day weekend, the Forest Service says. But Santa Fe National Forest district offices will be closed Monday, May 27.
