About

Little Mill Campground is situated in American Fork Canyon on the banks of American Fork Creek, providing a shaded retreat among dense stands of aspen, oak, and maple trees. The creek is stocked with rainbow trout and is a favorite among fly-fishermen. The 20-mile paved Alpine Loop Scenic Byway passes directly by the campground, offering breathtaking views of the Wasatch Range through alpine canyons, mountain meadows, and pine forests. The area features abundant wildlife including mountain goats, bighorn sheep, moose, mule deer, eagles, red-tailed hawks, and great horned owls. Nearby Tibble Fork and Silver Flat Reservoirs offer additional opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Multiple hiking and mountain biking trails are accessible from the area, including the Tibble Fork Trail, Pine Hollow Trail, Mill Canyon Trail, and Ridge Trail. Timpanogos Cave National Monument is located just 1.5 miles away, featuring a steep but rewarding hike to a guided tour of the spectacular three-room cave system.
