The festival offers primitive camping, which means there is no running water, power, or bathrooms. However, port-a-potty facilities are provided. Please remember to remove all your trash when you leave, as this is a wildlife preserve and leaving trash could harm the animals.

Campers can arrive on Friday and leave on Monday if they have a weekend or season pass. (Founding Members may also camp on the property.) Those arriving on Friday with a Saturday ticket may camp Friday night and will be given a special wristband. Camping is no longer an add-on item. Boondocking an RV or camper is allowed. There are limited RV/camper hookups available for $75.00 per night.

We DO NOT provide tents, specific camping spots, or help you setup your equipment. Camping locations are on a first-come-first-served basis.

All individuals in the camping area must wear wrist bands. If you do not have a wrist band, you will be asked to either pay $55.00 for another band or leave the property.

Ensure that all your belongings, whether in your vehicle or at your camp, are securely stored. While we are not liable for lost or stolen items, we may assist you in searching for them.

There are NO trashcans in the camping area. If you bring it with you, you take it away with you. If you see trash on the ground (Matter Out of Place - MOOP) please pick it up.

Arriving early and reserving an area for other members of your group is not allowed. You cannot arrive early and rope off an area or otherwise reserve space for other campers who have not arrived yet. You may not refuse other campers from camping in open areas immediately adjacent to your individual campsite; it is first come first served. You may be removed from the campgrounds if you do so. We cannot stress this enough, DO NOT ROPE OFF AREAS!!! It will entrap the deer and antelope on this property.

All campfires must be contained in a raised fire containment system and may not be left unattended. Additionally, all fires must be covered with a screen to prevent embers from blowing out.

Campfires are allowed based on the current burn ban status of Bastrop County. For example, if there is a burn ban in effect, campfires will not be allowed. You can check the current burn ban status in Texas counties by visiting the Texas Burn Bans website. Anyone with a campfire must have a fire extinguisher in plain view and within easy reach. If you are asked to put out a fire, you will only be given one chance to do so. If you fail to do it, you will be removed from the property.

All Campground Patrons MUST have a valid Festival Ticket or Season Pass for at least one day of the camping weekend.

No cutting, burning, decorating, or placing fasteners in them. No digging. No tree tents or hammocks.

We offer limited partial RV hookups. (That being power and water.) We do not have pump-out services. These can be booked in advance for 30 Amp and 50 Amp hookups.

We do allow RVs to Boondock (camping with an RV without water and power connections). We have a hose bib available for those entering the property to fill their water tanks.

If you are running a generator, then we ask that the generator be an inverter-type generator if you wish to operate it after 10pm. If it is not, and you do not have a medical reason to keep the generator running, you will be asked to turn it off so you do not bother the other campers. Loud generators require a sound shield. All use of genertors requires there to be a fire extinguisher within site of the generator at all times. (Yes, even when not being used.)

The venue (Valkyrie Ranch) does not rent their cabins during the Texas Viking Festival.

Please remember that pets are NOT allowed on the property. The property is a wildlife preserve, and there are traps and animals that can harm or even kill domestic pets. This rule is in place to help ensure the safety and health of your furry family members. However, service animals are allowed, but they must be kept on a leash at all times!

This is a wildlife preserve with free-ranging wild animals and horses that are used in the property’s operations. Visitors are considered eco-tourists and are made aware by signage that this is an equine area.

Please refrain from attempting to pet, feed, hug, approach, or interact with any animals on the property. Additionally, do not bring horses onto the property. The ADA permits mini horses as service animals, while we do not check for certification of service animals, we will demand if your service animal is a horse that you present a current Coggins certification. Failure to do so will prevent you from gaining access to the property.

Children 16 and younger MUST be accompanied by a Parent or Legal Guardian.

Illegal Drugs, Alcohol Abuse, Open Bars, Sales without Campground Vendor Permit, Fireworks, Sky Lanterns, Lazer Pointers, Drones, Airborne RC Vehicles, Golf Carts, ATV's, UTV's, and Dirt Bikes are NOT Allowed.

Firearms, concealed or open carry, are Strictly Prohibited / NOT ALLOWED! Swords, Knives, Axes, Maces, any edged or pointed weapons MUST be Sheathed and Peace Tied at All Times, period-themed or otherwise.

A violation of any rule or policy may result in removal from campground and the property without refund at the discretion of Management or Security Personnel. Management has final authority in all matters. Texas Viking Festival is privately owned and operated.
