Better plan on spending more than a day in Escalante Utah as there is more to do here than most people realize! Consider staying at the Broken Bow RV Park which is located in the heart of what is referred to as the monument area.
The wide open spaces offer exceptional opportunities for horseback riding, hiking, fishing, and biking. For those who enjoy four-wheeling there's an extensive network of off-road trails can be found throughout the region. Terrain varies from classic western red-rock spires to
alpine forests. You can ride directly from the RV park on Smokey Mountain Road and head out toward Hole in the Rock Road for some great riding.
The Devil's Garden and Hell's Backbone are also areas you might want to check out.

Within minutes from the Broken Bow RV Park, you can be in the desert, enjoying hiking in slot canyons or in the Dixie National Forest at 9000 feet amongst the pines and aspens, fishing for trout.
Escalante State Park and Petrified Forest is only 1/2 mile away and Calf Creek State Park is 15 minutes with a must see waterfall!

Broken Bow is the perfect choice for a base camp if you're also interested in seeing Bryce Canyon National Park, which is about 1 hour west or Capital Reef National Park located 1.5 hours to the east. It's a mini Grand Canyon plus much more!
