Best Equestrian Camping near Wallsburg, UT

247 Reviews

Equestrian camping options near Wallsburg, Utah are limited, with no campgrounds in the immediate area offering dedicated horse facilities. Liberty Ranch, located in the region, accepts pets but does not advertise horse corrals or equestrian amenities in its facilities listing. Most campgrounds in the vicinity, including Mount Timpanogos Campground and Dispersed Uinta Campsite, allow pets but lack horse-specific infrastructure such as corrals, stalls, or dedicated trailer parking areas. The sites have pet-friendly policies but no evidence of specialized horse accommodations or equestrian trail access points.

The surrounding Uinta National Forest offers some possible options for experienced backcountry horse campers willing to practice proper Leave No Trace principles. Riders must bring all necessary equipment for safely containing and caring for their horses. Many of the forest service roads in the area permit dispersed camping with appropriate permits, though specific horse-friendly amenities are not provided. Campers bringing horses should contact the local ranger district for current regulations on stock use, as rules for feed (weed-free hay requirements), containment methods, and manure management vary by location and season.

    Uinta National Forest Blackhawk Campground

    Grab an Equestrian site

    Blackhawk is great if you can’t find reservations elsewhere. we booked equestrian sites up at the top - highest elevation. Good views, pavilions, fire pits and pit toilets. Don’t have to have horses to book equestrian and they seem to be more available since I don’t think people k ow this.

    Timpooneke

    Amazing campground a short drive from the city

    This campground is well maintained and nestled into some nice pine trees in view of the backside of Mount Timpanogos, it is divided into 3 areas, one of which has horse corrals. While there are many campgrounds in Utah that rival it, this one is special because it's such a short drive after work.

    Soldier's Pass Utah Backcountry

    Good in a pinch, but shouldn't be your first option

    It's not great. Next to a shooting range and orv trails, so you'll hear that. Shrubs and a few small trees dominate the landscape, so there isn't much privacy. Roads were bumpy, but manageable. Access depends on where you go, Several paths to take w other sites. Lots of trash. Rock fire pits. Amazing views of the mountains behind Provo and Utah Lake. Full cell service w At&t. Free!

    Uinta National Forest Blackhawk Campground

    If I were to go back...

    I would reserve a spot ahead of time, avoiding any site in loop 'E'. That loop is for those planning to camp with horses. There are hitching posts at every site, therefore, lots of horse poo. And not the best place to take a dog because of all the horses in the area.

    The camp host at loop 'E' and 'D' is very nice, and is willing to split up group areas to individuals who have no where else to set up camp. If you do this, expect to get to know new people as you will share a fire pit and eating area.

    The fee to camp for one night is $20, but that includes access to any of the Payson lakes, which is $8 for day use.

    We didn't go on any hikes during our stay, as we bummed at the beautiful lakes (only the middle of the three lakes is dog friendly) all day. However, there is plenty of hiking in the area.

    Very hot. Around 90 degrees. Wake up and get breakfast early. Then enjoy the water in the heat!

    P.S. 3 stars due to the fact that I had to camp in horse crap.

    Payson Lakes

    Beautiful Lake And Beautiful Tree Cover

    Being that we already live in southern Utah county, this place has become a go to for our family. Only about 45 mins away from Payson Ut. 

    Great fishery for children and youth, as well as an amazing area for swimming and kayaking. They do not allow motorized boats, so it is safe. Also the lake isn't too big so if your teen blows across the lake on his kayak or raft he can easily walk it back around the lake. 

    We definitely recommend it.
