Swinging Bridge Equestrian Campground, near Price, Utah, is a solid choice for those looking to immerse themselves in nature, especially if you're into horseback riding. The campground features six spacious sites complete with green steel corrals, making it a convenient spot for equestrian campers. 

While there are no picnic tables or fire pits, visitors have noted the presence of vault toilets and good gravel roads, which help keep things accessible. One camper mentioned, “The road getting you into this deep canyon sets the mood for the epic adventure of sleeping down by the river and surrounded by massive rock walls.” 

If you’re up for some exploration, the nearby San Rafael River offers swimming holes and beautiful views, perfect for a refreshing dip after a day of adventure. Just remember to pack in your own water, as there are no drinking water facilities on-site.

While it can get a bit windy at night, the open layout allows for a friendly atmosphere where you might hear your neighbors but can still enjoy the peace of the canyon. Whether you're camping with friends or just looking for a quiet spot to unwind, Swinging Bridge has a lot to offer.

Located just a few hundred yards downstream of the San Rafael campground, this was built by equestrians for equestrians. Six campsites with pullouts to accommodate vehicle and horsetrailer surround a central holding pen with 3 separate stalls.

Experience the Canyon by staying IN it, not overlooking it.

We stayed this weekend (early May 2021) at the Swinging Bridge South Campground and had a great time. The campground includes:

*   Tent pads at every site
*   Plenty of space to pull up in one's vehicle
*   Accessible unisex pit toilet
*   Picnic tables at every site
*   Metal fire rings

The cost is $15 per night with a limit to 2 vehicles per site and up to 10 people per site, with half-price discounts for National Parks/Interagency Passes. There are neither trash receptacles on-site nor potable water, so plan to pack in/pack out.

  

This dog-friendly BLM campground made a great home base for adventuring in the Buckhorn Wash and Little Grand Canyon overlook area. There was minimal road noise at night, though you can hear neighboring campers since it's a fairly open campground. On our night it was rather windy so plan to bring strong tie-downs for your ground tent if you plan to use the tent pads.
