Fremont Indian State Park and Museum, Archaeological museum and state park in Sevier County, Utah.
Fremont Indian State Park and Museum is an archaeological site and state park in Sevier County featuring collections from Clear Creek Canyon. The facility displays artifacts, rock carvings, and wall paintings alongside hiking trails and two camping areas situated within the canyon landscape.
Construction of Interstate 70 in the 1980s uncovered one of the largest Fremont Indian settlements, leading to the park's establishment in 1987. This discovery brought attention to the region's occupation from 400 to 1350 AD by this early culture.
The collection displays pottery, baskets, and tools that reveal how the Fremont people lived and worked day to day. These objects show the skills and knowledge they developed over centuries of living in this desert region.
The park opens year-round, with longer visiting hours between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Two separate camping areas and multiple hiking trails make it easy to explore both the museum exhibits and the surrounding canyon landscape.
Clear Creek Canyon contains at least ten distinct archaeological sites preserving evidence of human presence across multiple millennia. This dense cluster of locations makes the area an exceptional window into the region's deep past.
