Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Dixie National Forest adventure.
This forest is a land of extremes, in scenery and in climate.
This wilderness area stretches for about 170 miles across southern Utah. It's the largest national forest in the state. Despite the name, not everywhere is suitable for trees. Pinyon pine and juniper grow well in low to mid-elevations. Some canyons are dry as a bone.
The forest defines the boundary between the Great Basin to the south and the Colorado River. The well-defined boundary produces spectacular scenery found nowhere else. Consider a climb to Blue Bell Knoll on Boulder Mountain.
The knoll is the highest elevation around at 11,322 feet above sea level. The mountain top is flat and covers 70 square miles. It's the highest timbered plateau in North America. Boulder Mountain has hundreds of small lakes for an afternoon dip on a hot summer day.
Camping usually exists near lakes or reservoirs for fishing and watersports. RV sites have electrical and water hook-ups. Historic guard stations serve as cabins.
Discover otherworldly beauty while camping at the Bonneville Salt Flats, a unique destination for adventurers and nature lovers. This expansive, landscape of gleaming white salt crystals provides a mesmerizing backdrop for camping, stargazing, and photography.
