About This Location

Experience primitive, year-round camping along Utah's Rim Trail. Perfect for hikers and mountain bikers seeking stunning Virgin River and desert canyon views.

The Rim Trail campground offers a rugged, primitive escape for outdoor enthusiasts looking to immerse themselves in Utah's stunning Southwest landscape. Managed by the BLM, this year-round site provides a true backcountry experience, perched along the south rim of the Virgin River. Campers will be treated to breathtaking vistas of deep tributary canyons, expansive desert terrain, and the surrounding mesas of Hurricane and LaVerkin.

The area is a premier destination for those who love to stay active, featuring a 7.3-mile moderate-to-difficult single-track trail that is highly recommended for mountain bikers, hikers, and equestrians. The terrain is diverse, ranging from smooth paths to rocky sections and challenging rock slabs. Nature lovers should keep an eye out for local wildlife, including hawks and a variety of desert birds.

Because this is a primitive BLM site with no hookups or specific facilities listed, it is best suited for self-sufficient tent campers and adventurers who enjoy a rustic, off-the-grid lifestyle. Whether you are tackling the technical single-track or simply soaking in the quiet desert atmosphere, this location provides a perfect base for exploring the unique beauty of the Virgin River region.
