Jericho Campground and Picnic Area

Located within the expansive Little Sahara Recreation Area, the Jericho Campground and Picnic Area offers a rugged, primitive escape for those looking to experience the unique beauty of the Utah desert. As one of four campgrounds in the region, this site provides a basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts who prefer a back-to-basics experience. The area is characterized by its vast, shifting landscape, providing a serene environment for visitors who enjoy the quiet isolation of the Southwest wilderness.

The site features 16 individual spots suitable for both camping and picnicking, with ADA-accessible facilities available for guest use. Because this is a primitive location, there are no utility hookups provided, making it ideal for self-sufficient tent campers and those who enjoy boondocking.

This campground is best suited for visitors who are well-prepared for primitive conditions and want to be close to the heart of the recreation area. While the site remains open year-round, potential visitors should be aware that the Little Sahara area can become a bustling hub during peak spring weekends, hosting large groups and significant crowds. It is a fantastic choice for those seeking a straightforward, authentic camping experience in a dramatic desert setting.
