Surrounded by national parks and outdoor adventures, Hurricane is an exciting camping destination in southwestern Utah. Hidden gems in the area include private mountainview campsites with tent sites, RV camping, and tiny home rentals just 40 minutes from Zion National Park.

It’s recommended to book six months in advance, as campsites in the national park are popular year-round. Those seeking a quieter escape can check out Snow Canyon State Park, where red sandstone surrounds a peaceful array of standard and partial-hookup tent and RV sites. Hike the 0.5-mile Jenny’s Canyon Trail for an exciting slot-canyon experience or admire ancient geology on the 2.5-mile Lava Flow Trail.

Cool off with a swim in the Sand Hollow Reservoir, ride ATVs over the dunes, and stay overnight at more than 100 campsites inside the park.
