About

Ferron Reservoir Campground Ferron North is a small, scenic campground perched at approximately 9,500 feet on the Wasatch Plateau in the Manti-La Sal National Forest. Located on the northeast shore of Ferron Reservoir, the campground offers 5 single-family sites nestled among spruce, fir, and aspen trees that provide partial shade. Each site features a picnic table and fire ring with gravel parking spurs. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis with payment via cash or check in fee tubes, or through the Recreation.gov mobile app using QR code scanning. Vault toilets are available, but there is no potable water or garbage service, so campers should come prepared to pack out all trash and bring adequate drinking water. Ferron Reservoir offers fishing for rainbow and cutthroat trout as well as canoeing and small craft boating. The expansive Arapeen OHV Trail System with over 350 miles of designated trails is accessible nearby, though OHV riding within the campground itself is prohibited except to enter and exit. Skyline Drive runs along the ridgeline above, offering spectacular alpine scenery, glacial cirques, and access to additional lakes and reservoirs.
