Arrowhead Campground

7 sites ¡ RVs, Tents5 acres ¡ Monument Valley, UT
Greetings! Welcome to Arrowhead Campground! Arrowhead Campground is roughly 5 acres of land, sitting right in Monument Valley, Utah. Come stay with us to experience one of the most amazing views in the world! You'll get to experience a full 360 degree view of all the towering red sandstone buttes and mesas. This is great for capturing the best views in the area. You'll experience breathtaking sunsets and sunrises right from your campsite. Great for pictures and photoshoots. The campground offers one of the largest shade structures in the area, with durable white picnic tables. We do allow campfires, so there is a fire-pit for that. The campground is only 2 1/2 miles away from the tribal park and 1 1/4 miles from the nearest highway. It's tucked away and secluded from noise and light pollution. The stars at night are bright and shinny, so you can pitch your tent right underneath them. With that said, Arrowhead Campground will be one of the best campgrounds you'll ever stay at. If you have any other questions feel free to message me with any of your questions. Note: This is a dry campsite. Although, we do offer potable water to fill any water containers up to 10 gallons.

First day of my campsite I start with 2 campsites then I built 1 more campsite.

The best camping near Rainbow Bridge National Monument guide

Overview

About

For thousands of years, wind and water have shaped the canyon landscapes of Utah. This majestic stone bridge is the crown jewel. Carved into sandstone, this natural structure has held meaning for the Ancient Pueblo, Paiute, and Navajo Peoples for centuries. Today it attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Pictures won't do it justice but take your camera along anyway (you won't regret it).

Utah’s nearby Kolob Arch and Landscape Arch give Rainbow a run for its money, but at 290 feet high, Rainbow is still the tallest. Reachable by boat or foot, this is one of the most accessible natural arches in the world. Boat tours and private boat launches take visitors across Lake Powell. Here you'll have to hike a short 1.5-miles to the observation area.

Intrepid backpackers can begin the journey on Navajo Mountain and make their way to the bridge through canyon country. Extensive hiking experience isn’t just recommended, it’s a necessity. The trails are not maintained and are subject to flash flooding, and the journey takes multiple days. Hikers must obtain a backpacking permit through the Navajo Nation. Please respect the archaeological sights, sweat lodges, and cairn markings along the trail.

Camping is not allowed here. Nearby Glen Canyon encompasses 1.25 million acres and offers plenty of Lake Powell camping spots for backpackers and glampers alike. If you do stay the night, don't miss the night sky. You won't be disappointed.
