Welcome to Goblin Valley State Park

Stage 1 Fire Restrictions are now in place on all state lands. What does this mean at Goblin Valley? You are still welcome to use any permanent (metal) fire ring or grill in the park, including at all developed campsites and 32 sites in the Behind the Butte area. Fires in rock rings are not permitted anywhere within the park during restrictions.

Notice: the visitor center will be closed from 1030am-4pm on July 14 for staff training.

Journey to this strange and colorful valley, which is unlike any other in Utah! The landscape, covered with sandstone goblins and formations, is often compared to Mars. Explore the geology, and camp among the nooks and gnomes. Park activities include hiking, camping, mountain biking, disc golf, ranger programs and access to OHV routes.

Drone regulations have changed for 2025. Please see the Drone page under Discovery for updates.

Be aware that the park can be exceptionally busy on weekends and during spring break periods. We recommend arriving in the morning or later afternoon to avoid crowds.
