Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area

This was an amazing ride! There are tons of sections for all riders, hikers, horse riders and even those who just want to take a ride for some beautiful sites. There is tons of picture spots and free camping. Keep in mind some trails are only for atv and horseback. I download onyx’s maps and that helps.

Beautiful! Lots of camping sites just up the road from the entrance. Big enough sites for our 30ft fifth wheel and more room for others. There's also smaller more private sites. Views are amazing 360°. Some sites could use a little clean up. Great stop for a few days

I just came to drive a little and see what it was… wow! You drive down into a canyon inthe middle of sandstone and sand dunes. Even a little brown river. The green growing everywhere was stunning amidst all the brown! I only went in about 10 miles bc I wasn’t feeling well but I saw tons of trails, roads camping and more!

Awesome experience!!!! Beautiful views. Peaceful and quiet. Good maintenance on the roads to the camping areas. Will definitely be a go to for camping in the future. Good camping spots. Can't wait to go back in the spring or summer to have fun at the potholes.

Great multiuse public conservation area open to dogs on leash or under voice control. We were happy to winter backpacking (without snow) and utilize dispersed camping. Beautiful views and well marked trails are popular with locals, trail runners, and backpackers as well. Just south of Grand Junction this was a good alternative to Utah with similarly intriguing geography, geology, and climate.

Very beautiful with breath taking natural landscape, you don’t even need 4 wheel drive. There are plenty of swimming areas for all ages and fur babies. Iv been coming here for decades and now enjoy it with my growing family presently. There is no state fee, so just go explore and have a beautiful time!!!

I did the big Dominguez little Dominguez loop. 40 mile trek in 3 days. It was not easy. Very remote. Very beautiful. Hard to navigate this place. Very little good information exists on the internet about the hikes in this area (why I gave 4 stars not 5)
