Maple Canyon Campground

Maple Canyon Campground is nestled among thick groves of maples below beautiful towering rock walls, just 3 miles from Freedom, Utah. Rock climbing is the campground’s main draw, attracting climbers from all over the world with its numerous routes for beginners and experts alike. This campground contains one group site that can accommodate up to 25 people, several single family sites, and four walk-to tent sites, sites 1-16 have picnic tables and fire rings. Sites 2, 3, 4, and 12 must be accessed by carrying your gear a short distance from the parking area and sites A-G only have fire rings. Vault toilets are provided but there is no water. You must bring your own. Roads and parking spurs are gravel. Pets must be leashed in campground. The canyon has some excellent hiking and horseback riding opportunities. Three steep scenic loop trails (3 to 5-mile loops) provide access to many of the rock climbing sites in the canyon. Trails included in these loops are: Left Fork Trail, Middle Fork Trail, and Right Fork Trail. Panoramic views east into Sanpete Valley and beyond to the Wasatch Plateau reveal themselves as you near the top.
