The deep sandstone canyons, mountaintops, meadows, lakes, and streams of the Manti-La Sal National Forest have beckoned people for ages. From the Abajos and La Sals in southeastern Utah to the Wasatch Plateau and Sanpitch mountains hundreds of miles away in central Utah, the Forest is a welcome retreat.

Scenic byways and backways summon motorists looking for stunning vistas. Abundant camping areas are perfect for creating family traditions. What you may not know . . .

The Sanpitch Mountains and the Wasatch Plateau are closest to the urban areas of the Wasatch Front. Far to the southeast are two other islands of Forest, the La Sal mountains, and the Abajo/Elk Ridge mountains.
