The Bridges Campground
Bridges Campground is located in beautiful Huntington Canyon along the Huntington Canyon National Scenic Byway on Utah Highway 31 at an elevation of approximately 8,100 feet. Large spruce trees and aspens offer plentiful shade, and Huntington Creek runs alongside the campground. The creek is a Blue Ribbon Fishery for brown, cutthroat, and rainbow trout.
Bridges Campground includes two single sites and one group site that can accommodate up to 30 people. The single sites include fire rings and the group site includes fire rings, benches, pedestal grill and serving table. You can find the vault toilet in between the group site and single sites.
Across from Bridges Campground you will find Bridges Riverside spur of the campground. This section of the campground includes two double sites equipped with fire rings. These sites are located next to Huntington Creek. Restrooms for these sites are located across the street at the Bridges Campground roughly 225 feet away.
