Labyrinth Backcountry Campsites are located in Canyonlands National Park, featuring rugged terrain with canyons and mesas. Temperatures can range from highs of 100°F in summer to lows of 20°F in winter. Nearby attractions include the Green River and the Island in the Sky district, offering opportunities for hiking and exploration.

You must have an overnight permit for all overnight trips along the White Rim. Obtain permits here: https://www.recreation.gov/permits/4675315 Labyrinth has two designated campsites: Labyrinth A This small, very scenic site is composed mostly of packed, gravel dirt. The area is wide open and there is no shade or shelter from the wind. The two Labyrinth sites are approximately 1,000 feet apart and are within sight of each other. During the summer months, sites along the river are very buggy. Limits: 15 people and 3 vehicles Toilets: Labyrinth A and B share a toilet; site A is closer than B. River Access: River access is available 0.3 miles north where the White Rim Road borders the bank. Labyrinth B This small, very scenic site is composed mostly of packed, gravel dirt. The area is wide open and there is no shade or shelter from the wind. The two Labyrinth sites are approximately 1,000 feet apart and are within sight of each other. During the summer months, sites along the river are very buggy. Limits: 15 people and 3 vehicles Toilets: Labyrinth A and B share a toilet; site A is closer than B. River Access: River access is available 0.3 miles north where the White Rim Road borders the bank. Come Prepared. The White Rim Road has long rocky stretches, deep sand, and little shade. Bring at least 1 gallon (4 L) of water per person, per day — more if you'll be active. Plan for a minimum of 10-12 hours of driving or cycling. Keep off the Arches. To promote visitor safety and the opportunity to view natural features undisturbed, climbing, scrambling, walking or standing upon, or rappelling off any arch is prohibited in the park. Water There is no potable water along the White Rim Road. For mountain bike trips, we highly recommend a four-wheel-drive support vehicle to carry water and equipment. The 100-mile White Rim Road loops around and below the Island in the Sky mesa top and provides expansive views of the surrounding area. Four-wheel-drive trips usually take two to three days, and mountain bike trips usually take three to four days. Under favorable weather conditions, the White Rim Road is moderately difficult for high-clearance, four-wheel-drive vehicles. The steep, exposed sections of the Shafer Trail, Lathrop Canyon Road, Murphy Hogback, Hardscrabble Hill, and the Mineral Bottom switchbacks make the White Rim loop a challenging mountain bike ride, and require extreme caution for both vehicles and bikes during periods of inclement weather. During high water conditions on the Green River, sections of road on the west side can flood, making a complete loop impossible. No potable water is available along the White Rim Road. For mountain bike trips, a four-wheel-drive support vehicle to carry water and equipment is highly recommended.

The Best Moab Camping | Utah Campgrounds

went during spring break, late March. the view is so chill. next to the river, and high up away feom the mosquitoes. waking up to this campground was soooooooooo refreshing! the views oh, and the night sky. yeas! temperature was cold. mid 30’s to high 40’s

chillest of the chill

The Labyrinth A &amp; B sites are about 100 yards from one another but elevation differences mean that you really don’t see the other unless you want to. Between the sites is a primitive toilet. 

  

The site itself is easy to reach (about 1-1.5 hour drive off the paved road via Mineral Road and WhiteRim Trail. The drive out is gorgeous with a few easy/medium technical areas. 

  

We arrived before sunset and enjoyed dinner by the Green River and an absolute show during sunset as the light and shadows danced around the canyon walls. The night sky is well visible and didn’t disappoint once the clouds cleared. 

  

By far our favorite camping spot to date!!

Gorgeous Flat Site on River

NOT for RVs. The road is 4x4 only with very low clearance. Stop and read every sign. You go through BLM land then on to Canyon Lands Property, which if you camp on that land with out a permit is heavy fines. Do not go here without talking to a local ranger / visitor center. It is BEAUTIFUL and the river is right there but the road is rough. We made it in a Subaru Outback but do not recommend. Jeep’s and trucks only. Also, the BLM land is before the sign and cattle gaurd, if you want to camp stay here. Wide open space and the river is just through the trees.
