The best camping near Ashley National Forest guide

Overview

About

Traverse steep canyons and mountain peaks among the wilderness located in northeastern Utah and southwestern Wyoming. Elevations range from 6,000 feet to over 13,500 feet high. You could spend a month here and not see everything.

Start with Kings Peak, the highest point in Utah. Aptly named Gunsight Pass affronts the peak with its narrow gap between two mountains. A long, gentle hike on the south side Kings Peak leads to the top. The view is well worth it, plus you get to say you reached one state's high point.

Head to Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area next. Red sandstone cliffs overlook a reservoir near the Green River, hence the name.

Put in your boat to navigate the reservoir's many scenic inlets. Drive to a trailhead before hiking to the top of one of these cliffs. Wintertime is great for cross country skiing and snowmobiling.

Campgrounds abound in this national forest. Flaming Gorge itself has more than 700 individual campsites.

Nearby attractions

Immerse yourself in the rich history and rugged beauty of the Colorado Plateau by camping near John Wesley Powell National Conservation Area. This camping adventure promises a journey through time, with fossil sites, geological wonders, and beautiful desert landscapes.
