Where can I camp for free in Moab?

A scenic view of Moab

While you're unlikely to find any free camping in Moab, free camping is available well outside town in Manti LaSal National Forest. Although the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) oversees more than 20 campgrounds around Moab, most of these developed campsites require a fee to stay overnight. (When within 20 miles of Moab, camping is only allowed in developed campgrounds, making free camping a rarity.)

Hipcamp has the perfect site to match your camping style.
