Gould's Trail

Gould's Trail offers a unique, primitive camping experience set within the stunning landscapes of Southwest Utah. Managed by the BLM, this site provides a rugged, off-the-grid environment for outdoor enthusiasts who want to immerse themselves in the classic black brush desert community. Campers are treated to expansive, breathtaking views of the looming Hurricane Cliffs and the surrounding mesas that define this beautiful region.

The area is primarily designed for those who enjoy active days in nature, featuring direct access to a 2.4-mile rolling singletrack trail. The terrain consists of soft desert soils that gently wind down from the mesa, dropping approximately 250 feet in elevation. While the trail difficulty ranges from easiest to moderate, it is a favorite destination for mountain bikers and hikers looking to explore the desert wilderness.

Because this is a primitive BLM campground, visitors should arrive fully self-sufficient as there are no hookups or modern facilities provided. This site is best suited for tent campers and those seeking a quiet, minimalist escape into the heart of the desert. Whether you are looking to tackle the local trails or simply enjoy a night under the expansive Utah sky, Gould's Trail offers a peaceful, year-round retreat.
