Cathedral Valley Campground, Remote campground in Capitol Reef National Park, Utah.
Cathedral Valley Campground features six primitive tent sites with picnic tables and fire pits surrounded by towering sandstone formations and desert landscape.
The area within Capitol Reef National Park contains geological formations that span millions of years, showcasing layers of sedimentary rock deposits.
The sandstone monoliths near the campground, including Temple of the Sun and Temple of the Moon, hold spiritual significance for Native American tribes.
Visitors need high-clearance vehicles to access the campground via a 36-mile dirt road from Capitol Reef visitor center, and must bring their own water.
The campground operates without fees on a first-come basis and provides complete solitude with clear views of unpolluted night skies.
