Everyone tells to circumvent Zion National Park, would be a shame, but with that the hassle of crowds, including traffic (yes, traffic!) When jumping one fiery red landscape to the next.
I was in it myself and to be honest, I was quite disappointed about how limited the park felt, after I brought my dog together with minimal pet-friendly paths and bumper-to-bumper traffic in certain regions of the park.
Although there may be mixed assessments with such cases, one thing is certain – adventure awaits in Utah.
A new report from the local Utah News -Bron KSL unveiled 4 State parks Have a massive transformation for both tourists and the locals to enjoy new sites, including always so-trendy small houses, all without the headache of crowds who can make more remarkable parks.
Escalant petrified Forest State Park
If you’ve never heard of it Escalant petrified Forest State ParkJust know it deserves the name.
Packed with old trees and petrified remains along the maze of wide open paths, this is one of the most unique parks in Utah.
Admission costs are $ 10 and definitely worth it for the amazing landscape and the Crowd-Free Nature, where you can embrace loneliness in many areas during a walk, bike ride or lounge on the lake.
This state park is basically in the middle of nowhere Brand new campsite With reimbursements that start at $ 30 per night, plus extra costs for water, electricity and dumping stations.
While you don’t talk here on the nearby natural attractions that are perfect for photo-ups, such as Lower Kalf Creek Falls And Phipps -Boog.
Red Fleet State Park
Even deeper in the land of No Man is Red Fleet State Park, where the claim on Roem is 200 million -year -old dinosaurustracks, where it is said that the best times to view them are early in the morning and late in the afternoon.
Although this is certainly no Jurassic ParkHold your butts, because this park is not snoozer!
With many outdoor activities to enjoy, such as walking, dirt cycling and countless water tension such as water kends and paddle board On the Red Fleet reservoir, often considered a ‘mini lake powell’
You probably want to make more than a day trip from Red Fleet. If that is the case, take advantage of the renewed campsites of the park with brand New small houses for rent, as well as other useful facilities that are mentioned at a later time.
For more information and a complete tour of the new small houses and general improvements of the park, I strongly recommend viewing the inhtful YouTube video below from KSL outdoors.

Utahraptor State Park
And the winner for the best Staatsparkknaam goes to …
Full disclosure: Utahraptor State Park Does not have the best reputation. Previously plagued by negative reviews such as a bare wasteland with nothing to do, Utahraptor has undergone a much needed glow.
Now there are 67 modern campsites to enliven the place in the hope of attracting more visitors than the measly 26,000 who were largely disappointed in 2024.
But hey, let’s give this place a chance. After all, it has only been a designated state park since 2021, with construction still underway for an official large opening planned for spring 2025.
Located near Moab, if this Utahraptor turns out not to be a Dud, are only 15 minutes more popular Bows National Park And Canyonlands National Parkplus UlumA luxury ‘glamping’ resort.
Bear Lake State Park
Bear Lake State Park is certainly the most attractive for the eye at first sight from these 4 state parks. Bear Lake himself is fascinating with turquoise waters and surrounded by rolling hills in the distance.
So beautiful, in fact it is called “the Caribbean of the Rockies”. It is clear that you want to spend most of your journey in and around the fantastic waters here.
To do this, you need more than $ 15 forks to come in. The costs vary based on season and residence, which you can view here.
Fishing, jet-skiing and sailing are very popular, just like walking, picnics and camping, what the new hype is around Bear Lake as New campsites And day areas were recently built in the Rainbow Cove and North Eden regions of the park.
Bear Lake is shared with Wyoming, and there are also hotels throughout the area, such as the Resort at Bear Lake And Sunrise Resort & Event Center.
