Lava Point Campground — Zion National Park
Reviewed Sep. 2, 2020

4600 foot elevation climb

We drove in unexpectedly on a drive. The campground is usually open through October 15 according to signage. Today it’s closed for the season, construction and forest management. They are clearing and burning debris, so it should be nice next season. No facilities, and even the bathroom is closed today. The drive is beautiful, going out of and back into Zion National Park along the way, some gravel road. There’s a community store/restaurant nearby Kolob Mountain Community. It’s 77 degrees at the top today, while the valley floor is 95. You’ll pass by Blue Springs Reservoir with healthy looking cattle. Kolob Reservoir is also nearby. Keep driving past the restaurant to find it. We did not go far enough to see it.
