Old Folks Flat Group Campground
Old Folks Flat Campground is nestled in beautiful Huntington Canyon along the Huntington Canyon National Scenic Byway on Utah Highway 31. Large spruce trees and aspens offer partial shade. The canyon area has numerous lakes and streams, vibrant summer wildflowers, colorful fall foliage, and abundant wildlife.
This campground is primarily devoted to group sites, but eight single-family campsites are also available. The five group sites can accommodate up to 20, 50 or 60 people and multiple vehicles in adjacent parking areas. Sites are equipped with tables and campfire rings with grills. The facility has recently been upgraded with flush toilets and drinking water spigots, but electricity and garbage collection service is not available. Roads and parking spurs within the campground are gravel.
Popular activities include fishing, hunting, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, rock climbing and scenic driving. Nearby Huntington Creek is a Blue Ribbon fishery, offering high-quality fishing for brown, cutthroat and rainbow trout. The 6-mile Left Fork of the Huntington National Recreation Trail is nearby and open to hikers and horseback riders. Trailheads are about a mile away in either direction and a trail passes through the campground that can take you north towards Engineer Canyon or south to Stuart Guard Station Interpretive Site.
