Ledgemere Picnic Area

Nestled in the heart of Big Cottonwood Canyon, Ledgemere Picnic Area provides a tranquil escape just minutes from the urban bustle. The site is defined by the refreshing flow of Big Cottonwood Creek, which runs directly alongside the grounds, creating a picturesque setting for outdoor enthusiasts. The surrounding terrain offers easy access to the canyon's rugged beauty, making it a prime location for those looking to immerse themselves in Utah's natural landscape.

The campground features 14 individual sites, each equipped with a picnic table, a campfire ring, and a grill for your outdoor cooking needs. While the site provides basic comforts like flush toilets, it remains a primitive experience with no utility hookups available, making it best suited for self-sufficient campers. The elevation of 5308 feet provides a pleasant climate for year-round visits.

This location is an excellent choice for anglers and hikers seeking convenient access to local trails and stocked trout waters. It is particularly well-suited for tent campers and those in smaller RVs who prefer a rustic, natural environment over full-service resorts. Whether you are planning a day trip or an overnight stay, Ledgemere offers a perfect basecamp for exploring the canyon.
