Gemini Bridges Campground

Dispersed camping in the juniper trees. Peaceful, serene, well spread out to provide some privacy, gorgeous views, and a perfect sunset and sunrise. A lovely night.

Camped here for a night the first week of June in 2024 and it was amazing. It was peaceful, only a few other campers in the area, but you really felt alone out there. The sky was so clear and full of stars at night. The road getting there was bumpy but not bad, I made it no problem in my hyundai tuscan. It was definitely hot and very little shade, but at sunset it was absolutely incredible! Would definitely camp here if you’re going to arches as well!

went in from the highway, my truck is a daily driver only 1" of lift on a 3rd gen Tacoma off road and made it in and out without a scratch, dropped my tire pressure down to 25lbs, go slow and take your time in the rough spots, 4 wheel drive is necessary or you'll be in trouble, was there on a Wednesday evening and with in 30 minutes of getting there a couple of the other spots past me got grabbed, I was in the 1st spot on the left

We have stayed here a couple times and love it soo much! The huge rock was and the secludedness was exactly what we were looking for. The area can be filled up quickly as u can only camp in designated sites but if you go during the week you may get lucky! We've this area and will def be returning

It was a gem of a find! Went about 1.5 miles down the road and ended up with a pad right by an overlook. Stunning sunset and sunrise

A fantastic place to camp but you will need 4 wheel drive and at least a little clearance on your car. It is on an off road route so you will see side by sides and off road vehicles

This was a great spot for a nights camping. You need 4x4 to get back in here and it is a bit of a drive back in here. There were a few other people in here in July but enough spots for everyone. Only thing you have to worry about is the wind blowing in the canyon at night.

Amazing spot if you can get to it, you do need 4x4 and high clearance to get through to the area is the only reason not for 5 stars. Only a few sites available but is a great isolated and quiet site.

Bumpy drive in 4x4 and high clearance definitely recommended. Probably 5/6 spots large enough for big groups. We got there around noon on a Thursday and only found one open spot, got super lucky. Views are gorgeous, lots of fun little hiking around the sites. Fire pits but no wood collecting so byow. Fun drive to the actual Gemini bridges.

About 4 miles off the main road. 4X4 recommended, good clearance and tough tires are a must. Worth the drive if you can make it.

Tucked away in the canyon it’s quiet and isolated. Each site (especially 3) has room for a couple vehicles. Perfect for group fires. No wood collecting, so bring firewood.

This place is amazing! We spent 2 nights and will definitely be back. Came on a Tuesday, almost sunset. Only 3 of the 5 sites were taken.

No facilities of any sort. Pack in, pack out. No WiFi. No cell. Be prepared to enjoy fresh air, beauty, quiet.

This is a narrow canyon, surrounded by high cliff walls. Everything echoes. Bring good quality firewood. Ours sparked, a lot and loudly. I was nervous our neighbors would think we were firing guns.

A high-clearance vehicle with good sturdy tires is a must. This is off-roading and the rocks are sharp. AWD or 4WD helpful but not necessary.

The sites are well-marked. Good spacing and privacy. Scenery is spectacular. Sites are remote. If you want to go anywhere, it’ll take a while. About 40 minutes from the main road.

This is a great spot for peaceful camping. A long way off the main road. 4x4 and good ground clearance highly recommended. No cell service T-Mobile or Verizon. Only 5 sites back there but we found one unoccupied. However we set up our tent and went out hiking and when we got back, someone else had parked in and put their tent down in our site. Lucky for them we aren’t jerks but that wasn’t cool. Guess you have to guard your site there if you want some privacy…

4.1 miles off of 191 turn left when you can when you see the chicken looking rock. We were camp spot #1 did have vehicles driving back to see if anyone was there. No cell service and I would recommend 4x4s seen a couple of cars there I wouldn't try it with our car. We had a jeep Wrangler and a small tear drop. Would recommend airing tires down. Sandy Dr Into site one and a few mosquitoes.

Great camping. There are five slots. The road the camping is on is to the east of Gemini Bridge at 38.61119, -109.67223.

So you can come in from Moab side or at the south west side of Gemini Bridge. The actual bridge is excellent.

Amazing spots nestled right inside the canyon. There’s only 5 designated spots and they do fill up fast. I got there around 5pm on a Saturday and took the last spot, I saw 4-5 vehicles drive by looking after I set up. I entered in from the north (start by the 7 mile RV park just off highway 191). The road is pretty rough with lots of large rocks and is quite steep in some areas. You’ll see tons of jeeps and SxS on the road so watch out. You’ll want a higher clearance vehicle with 4WD. You can also get to Gemini Bridges road from the Canyonlands/Dead Horse side but I’m not sure if that connects to the camping areas, as there was a dead end by the last camping spot. Come in from the North to be sure.

This is one of those campgrounds you dont want people to find out about. Absolutely incredible gem. 4x4 road to get to the site and spots filled up very fast on a Thursday but you are able to camp in the canyon and have a fire among the red rocks

I took the directions to coordinates and couldn’t quite find where it designated camping. We followed an off shoot of the Gemini Bridges trail and found a secluded spot that looks like it is frequently camped, but I don’t think it’s allowed. We camped anyway and didn’t have any issues and enjoyed the spot and had a little cell service on top of the rocks, it was the fork right before a large incline in trail where it gets pretty off roady. We went left and ended up by a bike trail. Pretty decent spot just hard to find actual spots. You should probably have high clearance 4x4 to prevent vehicle damage.

Came into town to see the National parks and this was our first stop.

Beautiful rocks and the scenic sky was amazing.

Wished we could have spent more time here.

If we make it back, this will be my first stop again.

Definitely recommend and/4wd and at least a moderate amount of ground clearance and it’s a bit of a drive but man it’s so beautiful and quiet. One of the best places I’ve ever camped and it’s free!

The drive to these campsites is steep and narrow. 4x4 advised. We drove the road in a Jeep Grand Cherokee and had no issues. If you’re afraid of heights and sketchy narrow cliff roads while driving (like me) then hold on tight… breathe deep… because the anxiety is worth it 100%. Most beautiful views. It feels like you have a whole National park to yourself. There are 5 spots and we drove in on a Wednesday evening and were the only ones here. No bathrooms, showers, anything. So be prepared for “roughing it”. Signs say portable toilets only. Enjoy this gem!

The road to get back to this campground can be a little sketch but should be fine if you’re in a Jeep or truck. I didn’t it in my RAV4 and did scrap the bottom once, but other than that this is an awesome camping spot.

We went thru there and drove the entire road. The Gemini Bridges dispersed camping area is now closed with no intention to reopen, per Park Ranger.

It took Ethel (our van) 30 minutes to climb the 2.4 miles to get to the most beautiful spot this summer (so far)! 5 miles from Arches once you hit paved road! Mountains all around. HUGE spots that could easily have 20 tents in one spot! Parts of the drive up were a bit adventurous but again...worth it! #meekachavezfarra and #gimlithecat approved! #ethelthevan made it! #farraroadtrip2021

One of the best dispersed camping spots I’ve experienced! The trail is about 30-45 min in and bumpy, so I’d say 4x4 is required.

Definitely recommend entering and exiting during daylight hours as part of the route is along the side of a [gorgeous] cliff. Make sure to bring plenty of water and firewood if you’re into campfires!

Out about 30min on a 4x4 recommended road, pretty mellow though. Absolutely beautiful camping spots, large enough for groups too. But there are only 5 spots, and we were lucky enough to grab the last spot on a Friday at 1pm, fills up fast! Would definitely go again! And got to see some base jumpers from our site too!

The drive up to the campsite is a little over 2 miles up and around the side of a red rock mountain! So beautiful, however our Escape couldn’t handle the rocky roads and we were nervous about driving on such a harsh road in the dark mostly bc it’s on the side of a cliff.... so we had to turn around before we made it all the way up :( In the picture of the mountain, you can see the little road traveling up to the left!

My jeep compass handle this trail to the sites just fine. Also the views there and in the morning, fantastic!

30ish from Arches so as a great nap spot before the following days excursion.

I’m not entirely certain this was actually Gemini bridges campground we stayed at but where we were was at least close. To get to either location took the same road. We stayed here JUST as COVID season hit and the town was shut down. It took some actual off roading to get here which was nice and being off season as well it made it absolutely perfect. I have a well built Tacoma and it was perfect for that but avoid your Accord but I’m pretty sure your Subaru could POTENTIALLY do it with some maneuvering and being very slow.

I am hesitant to share this campground with the world because I was so excited to realized that it seems to be relatively undiscovered by the internet thus far...

This past weekend a large group of friends spent the weekend camping at this absolutely gorgeous campsite. It is up a canyon just off of the Gemini Bridges 4x4 road. Note that it would be very difficult to reach this campground without a high clearance 4x4 vehicle. The road to the campground has steep drop offs, deep sand and large rocks that must be navigated. Once you arrive though, this is some of the best camping I have found in Moab! Total solitude, gorgeous views, a bit of shade and no light pollution to take away from the amazing stars! What else could you ask for?
