Overview

Hanging Rock Campground is located just off of Highway 21 between the towns of Beaver and Minerville, UT. The campground has six campsites all located alongside the scenic Beaver River. Along with the scenery that the river provides, it also offers what many consider to be the best fising in Beaver County.

Recreation

The Beaver River provides opportunity for year-round fishing. The Paiute ATV Trail and Beaver Bench Mountain Bike Trail System are located just down the road in Beaver, UT.

Facilities

Each site has a fire ring and picnic table. Sites 1, 2, 5, and 6 have pavilions.

Natural Features

Each campsite is located alongside the Beaver River. Views of the rocky, rolling hills can be seen all around. A short drive or hike in either direction will provide views of either the Mineral or Tushar Mountains.

The description, directions and fees are the Bureau of Land Management’s own words, from its record on Recreation.gov.
