Camping at Cedar Canyon near Cedar City

Public campground · Cedar City · 18 campsites · 1 group

A forested campground near fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Recreation radiates outward from the camp: Cedar Breaks National Monument is about 8 miles away and offers maintained trails, interpretive tours, and high-country views; immediately beyond Cedar Breaks the Ashdown Gorge Wilderness provides roughly 10 miles of trails and the Twisted Forest, a stand of ancient bristlecone pines. The 34-mile Virgin River Rim Trail is a short drive away and welcomes hikers, mountain bikers and horseback riders, while Navajo Lake and Duck Lake (both within about 20 minutes) are options for boating, canoeing and fishing.

“Nice large (secluded) spots. Was tight to get my travel trailer parked though!”

How far ahead to book Cedar Canyon

For May weekends, book about 117 days ahead. Three in four May Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 86 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (2,290 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
