White Bridge Campground is located just 12 miles southwest of Panguitch, Utah and 55 miles northeast of Cedar City. Visitors enjoy fishing, canoeing on nearby Panguitch Lake and exploring local trails.
Campers enjoy fishing for rainbow trout in Panguitch Creek. Hiking and biking are popular activities around the campground. The Panguitch Lake ATV Trail System offers 100+ miles of trails and can be accessed nearby.
White Bridge offers several family campsites. The sites along the creek have natural shade, while the sites across the loop road are more open and equipped with picnic shelters for shade. Flush and vault toilets are provided, as is drinking water and a dump station.
OHV/ATV's including street legal are allowed in the campground for ingress and egress only (to and from your campsite to the road). Joy riding in the campground is not allowed.
The campground is situated high on the Colorado Plateau at an elevation of 7,900 feet. Panguitch Creek runs alongside the campground. Cottonwoods line the creek and aspens, pinion and juniper dot the sagebrush-covered landscape.
White Bridge is just 6 miles from Panguitch Lake. Some of the state's largest rainbow trout are fished from the lake each year, and aptly so; "Panguitch" comes from the Paiute word meaning "big fish."
Anglers will also find brook, cutthroat and brown trout. Canoeing is a popular activity on this small body of water. Boat ramps are located on the south shore and at Wildlife Point.
Cedar Breaks National Monument, with hiking trails and guided tours, is 16 miles from White Bridge.
Just outside Cedar Breaks is the Ashdown Gorge Wilderness Area, where hikers will find 10 miles of trails and the Twisted Forest, a stand of ancient bristlecone pine.
Bryce Canyon National Park is just over an hour away, with breathtaking scenery and excellent hiking opportunities.
From Panguitch, Utah, take Highway 143 southwest for 12 miles. Campground is on the north side of the highway.
Absolutely fantastic little Campground about 25 of us spent Memorial Day weekend here it was clean it was quiet the fishing was great the trip from Las Vegas was only about 3 hours and 40 minutes. Very friendly and nice campground hosts well maintained. Nice General Store only about 4 miles and Panguitch is only about 18 away. I highly recommend going to White Bridge Campground
Small campsite thats a quick drive to Brian Head, Cedar Breaks National Monument, and Panguitch Lake. I've been camping here with family for many years and never get tired of it. Only downside is that its close to the main road. Great nonetheless!
My wife and l just bought our first trailer and headed to White Bridge camp ground. Being new Ron and Gina were so amazing ,they sat and talked with us about all the little tricks of camping. We used water to fast and Ron came out to the dump station to help me do everything. Gina then gave my wife some tips to save water . Even though we had our own bathroom in the trailer the camp ground and bathrooms were so clean we use them mostly . We saw them getting cleaned every day . Thank you guys for making our first trip amazing.
A beautiful drive to a beautiful place was what we needed. Surrounded by trees, hills, and mountains was enough to make us forget about the hustle and bustle of every day life. Greeting us was camp hosts Theda and her husband. Friendly and helpful, they helped us get aquatinted with the place. Campsites are clean, roomy enough and right next a beautiful sounding creek. The sound is enough to put you to sleep, given that you like the sound of continuous flowing water. The main road is just near the campsites, but it isn't busy.
Restrooms are clean, a comfort that is a must when camping but if need be, a non-flushable toilet is just as good. When camping, you don't need all the fancies of home, it defeats the purpose of camping. However, no showers are available here.
A small road near the camp led to a beautiful short hike. Being in the quietness of it all made our camping experience so peaceful. Not to worry, there were no bears in site or around to hinder our stay. We had a delightful time here, our hosts were amazing, and overall it was a great experience we'll never forget. Just please abide by what the hosts aquire of tenants. Park on the pavement (to which enough space is provided) as to prevent the eroding of what is naturally around. It is after all, it is a National Park and preserving what is left is precious.
In addition, this place is close to town and a gorgeous gorgeous lake (Panguitch lake). There are many sites to visit, places to cruise to, and hikes to venture forth on in the vicinity.
This is my second year coming up to this quiet, cool, beautiful campground. The absolute best part was Ron and Gina Cummins, the best campground caregivers and warm hearted people I've had the pleasure of being their guests. So helpful, knowledgeable about the area, as well as campers in general. Their experience shows! Freshly painted buildings, all the sites are always clean and cared for. I want to give them 100 ⭐'s not just 5!!!
