Lava Flat Designated Dispersed Campground Area

Lava Flat is a free, designated dispersed camping area in Dixie National Forest at 8,330 feet elevation with multiple tent and RV-friendly sites spread across both sides of Mammoth Road near Duck Creek.

The area offers paved road access, scenic aspen and mixed conifer forest, and proximity to fishing opportunities at nearby lakes (Panguitch Lake, Duck Creek, Navajo Lake, and Mammoth Creek), though visitors should expect significant ATV noise during weekends and must pack in all water and supplies with no facilities available.

Cell service is variable (Verizon generally better than T-Mobile), and the 14-day stay limit applies.
