The Magic Circle is a 450-acre area of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) public land where family-friendly nude camping is legally allowed. There are no membership fees or dues because the Magic Circle is not a club or resort but a public camping area. The place typically features a large event tent, a storage trailer, and other communal amenities maintained by volunteers. Visitors are welcome to stay for a day or up to seven months.
Please note, ClothesFree International is not affiliated with the Magic Circle Tent; this is simply a review. However, some of our team members often set up mobile offices there.

General Information
The Magic Circle tent and its events are private and not open to the general public, although there is usually a daily Meet and Greet at 4 PM. Day-use visitors are welcome to enjoy nude sunbathing, hiking, and other activities on the BLM land free of charge. However, overnight camping requires a permit and compliance with BLM’s self-contained camping requirements (details here).
Activities organized by the community include breakfasts, dances, yoga, crafts, and Saturday night movies. Seasonal events like Thanksgiving dinners and Christmas gatherings are also hosted. The site boasts over three miles of barefoot-friendly hiking trails, clearly marked with rocks and raked for comfort.
Rules and Etiquette
• The area adheres to BLM rules. The BLM has requested that we do not go on the roof of our RVs without clothes.
• The BLM has also requested that we stay well within the boundaries of our area when nude.
• Public sexual activity is unacceptable and illegal, as the Magic Circle maintains family-friendly social standards.
• The community welcomes people of all ages, races, religions, political affiliations, and sexual orientations. Respectful behavior is essential to maintaining a safe and welcoming environment.
There are no designated campsites—camp anywhere within the Magic Circle boundaries. However, overnight camping is limited to self-contained camping units (e.g., RVs with a permanently affixed 10-gallon or larger wastewater tank). Portable systems or smaller holding tanks are not considered self-contained.
Camping fees are:
• September 15 to April 15: $40 for up to two weeks or $180 for up to seven months (includes trash service, water, and RV dumping).
• April 16 to September 14: $15 per night or $75 for up to five months, with a two-week limit per month. After two weeks, campers must move 25 miles away before returning.
Day-use is free, with or without an RV.
