Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Red Fleet State Park adventure.
Red Fleet State Park: A Landscape of Adventure and Prehistoric Wonders.
If you’re ever feeling old, just visit Red Fleet State Park, where you can hike to 200-million year old dinosaur tracks. Yeah, that’ll have you feeling young again! Budding paleontologists will want to check out the tracks, too. Get there via a 1.5-mile trail with a few uphill and downhill spots that’ll get your lungs pumping and your legs burning. It’s best to go during early morning or late afternoon, since the burning Utah sun can make the tracks hard to pick out. If you make the trip in the morning, spend the rest of your day relaxing on Red Fleet Reservoir. Boating and fishing are popular, and if you’re lucky enough to catch some dinner for your group, enjoy it in the park’s scenic campground that overlooks the sandstone and desert that surrounds you.
The best time to visit Red Fleet State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer offers warm waters for swimming, though it can be hot. Winter brings a quiet, stark beauty, but be prepared for cold temperatures.
