About this place
Horseshoe Knolls is a camping and off-highway riding area, east of the highway across from Horseshoe Springs. Nothing is marked out.
Families camp here, ride the trails, or sit still. Spring and fall are the seasons for it.
The ground is very sandy, and juniper trees give good shade. Off-highway trails wind through the trees and the sandy washes, and they suit riders of any age.
There is nothing built here and no water.
Target shooting is not allowed.

Every distance on this page is the driving distance. A short distance can still take a long time. The road may be closed for the season, covered in snow, or washed out. Many of these roads are dirt. Plan your route before you leave home. Out here there is often no phone signal to look it up on the way.

Grantsville is big enough that you’d normally expect fuel and somewhere to buy food. Nobody from here has been to check, so don’t count on it if you’re running low.

Add road notes for this site
The thing we cannot get from any government record is what the drive in is actually like. If you have done it, this is the most useful thing you can leave behind. We read everything before it appears, and we print a first name with it if you give one.
Thank you. A person will read it before it goes on the page.
