Experience genuine wild country just a few hours from a major metropolitan area. Unspoiled and lacking the crowds of most recreation areas, Flaming Gorge Country is an outdoor wonderland. Year-round recreational opportunities abound on the 91-mile Flaming Gorge Reservoir and the famed Green River. A rewarding stop along your tour of the natural wonders of the West, Flaming Gorge Country provides the contrast in scenery for which the West is famous, from the rugged Uinta Mountains to the expansive Wyoming deserts. This spectacular combination provides a roomy habitat for a variety of big-game animals, including moose, Rocky Mountain elk, pronghorn antelope and bighorn sheep. Side trips, like the Sheep Creek Geologic Loop Tour, offer exciting views of bighorn sheep. Winter is a magical time of year here in Flaming Gorge Country. Whether you're on cross-country skis or snowmobiles, there are miles of trails to explore. Of course, there is fishing in Flaming Gorge Country. Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area is managed by the USDA Forest Service, Ashley National Forest and USDI Bureau of Reclamation. Recreational opportunities include more than 600 camping and picnic untis (including boat-in and float-in camps), three full-service marinas, two visitor centers, some 200 miles of trails and many other visitor facilities. The Flaming Gorge Dam Visitor Center is open year-round. Some facilities are fully ADA accessible, including campsites, picnic sites and fishing platforms.
