Camping Near Talladega Superspeedway

If there is a wild card in the Chase For The Sprint Cup this week’s race definitely fits that bill.

The Sprint Cup Series travels to the Talladega Superspeedway and NASCAR’s biggest and fastest track for the Camping World RV Sales 500.

It’s known for three-and-four-wide racing on the high-banked 2.66-mile tri-oval facility.

Oh, and it is also known for notoriously big wrecks.

That could have a big impact on the championship points race as the leaders will try to avoid getting caught up in any carnage.

While Talladega is known for its speed and spectacular crashes, it is also famous for its camping.

Being located in the hills of northern Alabama, camping is the main form of accommodations for the 143,000 spectators that will attend the race.

Sprinkled around the speedway are 23 campgrounds that offer plenty of options for the RV camping race fan.

I have taken a look at three such RV parks along with the camping options inside the 212-acre infield.

DOVE RIDGE CAMPGROUND

Is located directly across the street from the speedway and has over 400 sites available for RV camping.

This RV Park also offers the following:

• Water and electric
• 30 and 50 amp electricity for Travel Trailers, 5th Wheels, Toy Haulers, and Motorhomes
• Dump stations
• Portable toilets
• Showers

Campsites are generally rented from the Tuesday before the race until the following Monday and range in price from $250-$300.
