Candy Loop Road cuts through open meadow terrain within Dixie National Forest, offering dispersed camping managed by the US Forest Service just minutes from Cedar Breaks National Monument. This is first-come, first-served camping with no designated sites, no facilities, and no hookups. Pack in everything you need.
The road itself warrants attention before committing to a site. An endorheic pond sits roughly half a mile from Highway 148, and the soft dirt road beyond it can develop ruts when wet. Campers with larger rigs have found workable spots, including a long spur at roughly 37.5845, -112.8427 that fits multiple big vehicles, but scouting ahead before pulling past the pond is worth the extra time. Temperatures in June run from the mid-50s to low 60s during the day and drop into the 30s overnight. Wind is a factor some days.
Sites are generally clean and low-traffic, particularly mid-week. Reviewers consistently note how quiet the area is at night. T-Mobile users have reported 5G coverage on-site. Campfires are permitted when conditions allow, and at least one reviewer found the area outside active burn restrictions in late June. Nearby campground options include Dixie NF Dispersed off FR 624 near Cedar Breaks and Point Supreme Campground — Cedar Breaks National Monument for those wanting a developed alternative. As Trail.Violet J. put it, "looks like most people practice that because our site was very clean." Candy Loop works best for self-sufficient campers, including those traveling with dogs, who want low-density dispersed camping close to Cedar Breaks.
