About

Aspen Campground is nestled in the scenic North Fork Drainage just off Highway 35, about 13 miles from Tabiona, Utah. The campground sits at an elevation of 7,200 feet in a mixed forest of aspen, subalpine fir, lodgepole pine and spruce just above the North Fork Duchesne River. The setting affords beautiful views of the surrounding canyon, and summer wildflowers are plentiful throughout the area. The campground contains single and double-family sites, all equipped with picnic tables and campfire rings. Some sites overlook the river, providing scenic settings for camping. One group site accommodating up to 32 people is also available, equipped with picnic tables, serving tables and a campfire circle with benches. Vault toilets and trash collection are provided, though roads and parking spurs are dirt. Fishing for brook, brown and rainbow trout is a popular activity on the North Fork Duchesne River. The North Fork Drainage also provides access to the Granddaddy Lake region of the High Uintas via Grandview Trail, where numerous sparkling alpine lakes provide excellent backcountry fishing opportunities. Hiking, mountain biking, OHV riding, and horseback riding trails are abundant in the area, making this a prime location for both roadside camping and wilderness exploration.
