By Kim Merryman<\/span><\/h4>\n

Now that it\u2019s the new year, our holiday decor is packed up in the back of the storage closet for the rest of the year, and we\u2019re back in the grind and routine of everyday life. To beat the early winter blues, I\u2019m planning an <\/span>Escape campervan<\/span><\/a> trip to the deserts of Utah. There are a few 3-day weekends coming up I\u2019m hoping to take advantage of to get out on the road, not to mention spring break a couple of short months away. The problem with holiday weekends and spring break in Utah? The crowds!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of following all the other long weekend warriors to the big national parks in the desert, I\u2019m going a little bit off the beaten path. I like to search maps for state and regional parks near the national parks or base my trips around a special hike or bike ride. Here are a few <\/span>alternatives to the popular National Parks <\/span>in Utah that will have everything you\u2019re looking for without as many cars or people.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":32853,"id":32853,"title":"fisher-towers-moab","filename":"fisher-towers-moab.jpg","filesize":650620,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/en-gb\/fisher-towers-moab-2\/","alt":"Towers in Moab","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"fisher-towers-moab-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2022-02-15 14:57:31","modified":"2022-02-15 15:02:56","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1920,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-300x225.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":225,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-768x576.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":576,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-1024x768.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":768,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-1536x1152.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1152,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-2048x1536.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1536,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab-1200x900.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":900,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":225,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":300,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fisher-towers-moab.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":450}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

Arches and Canyonlands National Parks\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

These two major national parks near Moab, Utah are quintessential red rock dreamlands. But everybody knows it. Starting this April and lasting through October, Arches will have timed entry reservations because of the long wait times to enter the park. However, the area around Moab has tons to do without the lines. Hike or bike the canyon trails off Kane Creek Road. Need to see an arch? Try the 3-mile Corona Arch Trail.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Go for a run on Highway 128\u2019s canyon pedestrian path. To really get away from the Moab crowds, head a little further south to Bears Ears National Monument and <\/span>respectfully visit<\/span><\/a> ruins along the hiking trails. It\u2019s important to remember that spring and summer <\/span>camping in Moab still takes some planning<\/span><\/a>, even if you aren\u2019t in the parks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bryce Canyon National Park\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bryce Canyon has a unique landscape of orange hoodoos and pink and white cliffs. You don\u2019t have to go to the park to see it, though! Cedar Breaks National Monument isn\u2019t far up the road, outside of the tiny ski town of Brian Head, Utah.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Monument has a campground open in the summer months (it\u2019s at 10,000 feet elevation), but the area around Brian Head offers dispersed camping as well.

Zion National Park\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Zion is already a little difficult to get into with its long lines to take the shuttle into the canyon. In addition, this year, the park is piloting a permit lottery for its most popular hike, Angels Landing. While there\u2019s nothing quite like that canyon or that hike, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument\u2013vast and easier to access\u2013has some incredible views and sites.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The drive through the Monument on Highway 12 is one of the most unique and scenic in the country, and there are many hiking trails with waterfalls, cliffs, and hoodoos. The Monument has both established campgrounds and many possibilities for <\/span>dispersed BLM camping<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Capitol Reef National Park<\/span><\/h2>\n

Compared to the other Utah National Parks, Capitol Reef National Park with its big canyons and red and white rock formations is relatively less crowded, so check it out if you can. But if you still want fewer people with red rocks, head over to Goblin Valley State Park to camp and wander among its strange rock formations. Like Capitol Reef, Goblin Valley is also an International Dark Sky Park, so you can get the same spectacular stargazing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":32865,"id":32865,"title":"grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument","filename":"grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument.jpg","filesize":461068,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/en-gb\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-2\/","alt":"National Parks in Utah","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2022-02-15 14:57:50","modified":"2024-06-17 19:25:42","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2560,"height":1920,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-300x225.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":225,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-768x576.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":576,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-1024x768.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":768,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-1536x1152.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1152,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-2048x1536.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1536,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument-1200x900.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":900,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":225,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":300,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/grand-staircase-escalante-national-monument.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":450}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"
