Cowboy Camp

Description

Cowboy Camp is a small campground that features broad vistas, rugged terrain, and most important, plenty of space between sites and neighbors. The campground is within an earshot of UT 313, but it’s conveniently located near Dead Horse Point State Park and Canyonlands National Park.

A self-serve pay station sits at the entrance to the campground, and a narrow rocky road leads to the seven campsites. As the sign warns at the entrance, the road is not suited for large vehicles or trailers.

Cowboy Camp is a rustic campground with few amenities. Be sure to bring water with you (available at Lions Park at the intersection of highways 191 and 128 in Moab), and take your trash with you when you leave. You can find a dumpster at Horsethief Campground a few miles north on Hwy 313.

• Pit toilets

Directions

From Main Street in Moab, Utah, drive 11 miles north on Hwy 191. Turn left onto UT 313, and continue for another 14 miles towards Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point State Park. The campground is on the right side of the road, marked by a BLM camping sign.
