Dixie National Forest Campgrounds

The only fees charged in Dixie National Forest are for camping in the campgrounds. If camping in the Southern Utah area, consider camping in the forest among the multitude of trees and wildlife. Camping in the national parks is crowded, but the more primitive lands of Dixie National Forest are enjoyable for those who want the solitude of pristine nature.

Camping in Dixie National Forest

If camping near a beautiful lake is appealing, then Navajo Lake, located along highway 14 in Dixie National Forest is the ticket. There are three campgrounds; Te-ah, Spruces and Navajo Lake. These campgrounds offer abundant aspens to add to the forest scene. Campgrounds are also located across the highway from Duck Creek, and up Highway 148 in Cedar Breaks National Monument.

Dixie Forest Camping

Remote Camping

Remote camping is offered along ideal streams like Rattlesnake Creek or Ashdown Creek. Along the Ashdown Gorge Route there is good camping on Stud Flat (no water) at the intersection of Rattlesnake Trail and Rattlesnake Creek in the fir trees (Water Source) and camping between the intersection of Rattlesnake Trail - Rattlesnake Creek and High Mountain Trail intersection above Rattlesnake Creek.

Cedar Breaks Camping

Within the boundaries of Cedar Breaks National Monument there is a 30-site campground with water and a picnic area. Evening programs are held in the campground (in season) by the Cedar Breaks Rangers.

Dixie National Forest

If you live on this land, and you have ancestors sleeping in this land, I believe that makes you a native to this land. It has nothing to do with the color of your skin. I was not raised to look at people racially. What I was taught is that we're flowers in the Great Spirit's garden. We share a common root, and the root is Mother Earth.
- -- Oh Shinnah
