About

The Ledge Group Sites are a set of three BLM group campsites situated along Kane Creek Road, approximately 10 miles from Moab, Utah. This area is a hub for off-highway vehicle recreation, with direct access to popular routes including Hurrah Pass, Amasa Back, and Kane Creek Canyon. The campground caters to groups traveling with motorcycles, ATVs, and 4WD vehicles looking to explore the challenging backcountry terrain. Access to the campground requires descending a tight, steep switchback and crossing several creek beds on a gravel and dirt road. Vehicles over 22 feet or those towing long trailers are not recommended. The Ledge E Group Site in particular is subject to periodic flooding during thunderstorms where the road crosses Kane Creek drainage. Each group site includes a fire ring with grate and picnic tables. Vault toilets serve the area. There is no potable water, dump station, or electrical hookups. Campers must bring all water and supplies. The exposed desert setting offers little shade, making spring and fall the ideal seasons to visit.

Directions

From Moab, drive 10 miles on Kane Creek Road. The group sites are on the left side of the road. Access involves a tight, steep switchback and several creek crossings on gravel/dirt road. Not recommended for vehicles over 22 feet or those pulling long trailers.
