If you\u2019re unable to book ahead of time, we recommend looking into Utah\u2019s<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/blog\/dispersed-camping\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> dispersed camping (or free camping) options<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> near the parks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Food and Supplies: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since this route includes long periods on the road, make sure you have all your camping necessities before leaving Salt Lake City.

These are just a few of the reasons why a camper van rental is the way to go for your Utah adventure:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Compact: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the majority of this itinerary taking place in national parks, having a vehicle that is smaller than a typical RV is a big help.
