Yellow Trail

The Yellow Trail is a primitive camping destination located in the heart of the Southwest Utah desert. This site serves as a rugged, off-the-grid basecamp for those looking to immerse themselves in the raw, natural beauty of the region. As a BLM-managed area, it offers a stripped-back experience that appeals to outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize solitude and direct access to the landscape over modern conveniences.

The terrain here is best suited for experienced adventurers who are self-sufficient, as there are no hookups or developed facilities available. The area is defined by its challenging singletrack trails, which were originally established to provide a technical alternative to the sandy paths found elsewhere on Gooseberry Mesa. With its most difficult rating, the trail system is a premier draw for mountain bikers and hikers looking to test their skills on demanding, high-desert terrain.

Because this is a primitive site, visitors should arrive fully prepared for backcountry conditions. It is an ideal spot for tent campers and those seeking a quiet, year-round escape away from the crowds of traditional parks. Please respect the surrounding environment and private property boundaries to ensure these trails remain accessible for future riders and hikers.
