Camping in Zion National Park or its surrounding area is a feast for the eyes. If you are searching for a comfortable campground for your trip camping in Zion, choose Zion River Resort for its fantastic amenities and close proximity to the towering monoliths of Zion Canyon, the park’s most visited area. We offer amenities you will not find at other Zion National Park campgrounds, including a social hall with a surround sound movie theater and regular social gatherings such as community campfires and holiday celebrations. After a day of exploring Zion or southern Utah’s other breathtaking scenery, return to our top-notch camping accommodations, which include a pool, a spa, and a game room.
While on your trip camping in Zion’s immediate vicinity, you can also take day trips to the area’s other nearby scenic attractions, including Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Bryce Canyon National Park and Grand Canyon National Park. If you would like to venture closer to your Zion camping headquarters at Zion River Resort, visit Red Cliffs Recreation Area and Snow Canyon State Park, two red rock spectacles less than an hour away.
While camping in Zion River Resort’s tent sites and camper cabins, you can also visit area historical attractions. The Zion Human History Museum chronicles the story of the park’s Native Americans and early settlers through various displays. It also recounts Zion’s history as a national park through exhibits and a 30-minute video presentation. Camping in the Zion area also puts you close to two famous ghost towns. Grafton, located only four miles west of nearby Rockville, gained fame as a filming location for the movie “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” while Silver Reef, located near Rockville, displays the remnants of a former mining boomtown and features a museum that chronicles the town’s history housed in a former Wells Fargo Express building. Whether you enjoy scenery or history, or both, camping in the Zion National Park area is a rewarding, memorable experience.
