Best Campgrounds near Moab, UT
The red rock country around Moab has some of the most sought-after camping in Utah, with options inside and outside the national parks. Devils Garden Campground sits inside Arches National Park, putting you close to trails and the park's famous stone arches. Between Canyonlands and Arches, Horsethief Campground gives you more space and quiet, though it has fewer facilities than other spots. Moab's weather swings widely - days might hit 100°F in summer while nights can drop below 50°F, so bring clothes for both extremes. Most campers find spring and fall give the best balance of good weather and smaller crowds. Getting a spot at Devils Garden takes planning since sites fill months ahead, especially during peak seasons. Many Moab area campgrounds don't have showers, so you'll want to bring extra water for cleaning up. The trade-off for basic facilities is camping among some of the most dramatic landscapes in the Southwest, with red rock views in every direction.
