Red Canyon Campground

If lounging in a grassy meadow high above the striking red cliffs of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir sounds awesome after a day of canoeing and fishing on Greens Lake or rafting down the Green River (which also sounds awesome, right?), Red Canyon Campground is the place for you! Sitting at 7,400 feet, the campground is just a short walk away from beautiful cliffs that overlook the reservoir. There might not be much shade, but the plentiful wildflowers should make up for that. Excellent hiking and biking on the Red Canyon Rim Trail is easily accessible from the campsite, too.
