Hideout Canyon Boat-IN Campground

Hideout Canyon Boat-In Campground offers a unique escape into the rugged beauty of Utah's Southwest region. Nestled along the shores of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir at an elevation of 6,032 feet, this site is steeped in history; it is named for the legendary hideout once used by Butch Cassidy and his infamous gang. Because it is located two miles from the nearest road, the campground provides a secluded, peaceful atmosphere that is accessible only by boat or hiking trail.

This federal campground is designed for those seeking a true wilderness experience. While the site does not offer hookups, it provides essential comforts including flush and vault toilets, fire rings, and picnic tables. Visitors can also take advantage of the on-site camp store, boat ramp, and direct access to fishing spots and hiking trails. Whether you are spending your day water skiing, canoeing, or swimming, the reservoir serves as your ultimate backyard playground.

This destination is best suited for tent campers and adventurous boaters who enjoy a moderate level of outdoor challenge. It is an ideal spot for those looking to disconnect from the noise of the city and immerse themselves in the dramatic canyon scenery that defines this historic stretch of the Flaming Gorge.
