About this campground

Sand Flats Recreation Area in Moab Utah is famous for accessible off-road trails for bicycles, motorcycles, and 4x4s. Slickrock, Fins and Things, Hell's Revenge, Porcupine Rim, and many more challenge enthusiasts with miles of one of kind off-roading. Managed by Grand County Utah under agreement with BLM the area provides primitive tent and RV camping in 9 designated campgrounds located along the main access road, Sand Flats Road. Campgrounds A, E and Juniper (J) have campsites suitable for RVs; the remainder are limited to tent and off-road capable small RVs. First come first served.

What campers say

Sand Flats Recreation Area is a compact, scenic playground for off‑roaders, hikers and cyclists. Popular routes (including Hell’s Revenge and long loops toward the La Sal Mountains) offer dramatic views; some sections need high clearance or specialized vehicles while many loops are doable in stock rigs. Campsites are available for a small fee (about $10 for a multi‑day pass) and rangers are friendly and informative. Expect open‑air pit toilets, limited hand‑washing facilities, summer heat and strong winds at times, and increased noise or crowded sites during peak season and events. Bring plenty of water and basic recovery gear; cell service can be spotty.
