Red Cliffs Campground in UT
Bureau of Land Management allows overnight stays only at the designated sites here.
Located at the base of red Navajo Sandstone cliffs inside the Red Cliffs National Conservation Area, this 11-site campground sits along Quail Creek under a canopy of cottonwood and willow trees. Sites include picnic tables, grills, and shade shelters, alongside accessible vault toilets and drinking water taps. The Red Reef Trail begins on site, leading into the Cottonwood Canyon Wilderness past dinosaur footprints and historic 10th-century farming sites. Access is restricted to vehicles under 11 feet 9 inches in height.
The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad. Overhead clearance here is posted at 11 ft -- the tightest site sets the limit.
