Agua Adentro Pens is an equestrian staging area along Camino a la Sauceda, the 2WD main road. This campsite allows a maximum of twenty-four persons and a twelve vehicle limit.

In Spanish Agua Adentro means “water within,” referring to a nearby mountain and spring. This site consists of three large shade shelters, several livestock pens, three fire rings and a traditional ocotillo fence surrounding a small livestock pen. The area is so large that it easy to move any horse or travel trailer around to make camp more comfortable. Located close to the center of the park, the equestrian has unlimited access to miles and miles of historic ranching roads and trails to explore.
