TASHA EQUESTRIAN CAMPGROUND
Overview
Tasha Equestrian Campground is in central Utah, four miles north of beautiful Fish Lake at 9,000 feet elevation. Must have horses to reserve and stay in the campground.
Facilities
Tasha Equestrian offers a group site with a picnic shelter and single-family sites. The group area will accomodate 25 people and up to 10 vehicles. Flush toilets and drinking water are provided. Roads and spurs are gravel but have good access for trailers and trucks. The camp is fully equipped for campers with horses.

Natural Features
Tasha's high mountain setting is beautiful but remote and is prone to rapid weather changes because of the elevation. The site is forested with a mixed stand of aspen, spruce, and pine trees that provide partial shade. Most sites provide sweeping views of the mountain and valley.
Recreation
Many miles of horseback riding, hiking, biking, and off-road vehicle trails crisscross the area.
