Activities

• Off Roading
  The most popular activity in Sand Hollow State Park, Utah, is riding an ATV, dune buggy, dirt bike or another choice vehicle through the dunes, sand and desert that makes up the park. There are facilities geared towards loading and unloading, as well as a campsite with ATV access.
• Fishing
  Largemouth Bass and Bluegills are just some of the fish waiting for anglers in Sand Hollow. Though the park has only been open for a few years, there is already a healthy population of larger bass over five pounds.
• Boating
  With 1,322 acres of surface water, motorboats have plenty of space to head out for a whirl on the lake, surrounded by the beautiful desert scenery.
• Camping
  There are three separate camping areas in this park. The largest is the Westside Campground, offering full hookups for RVs. The Sand Pit is aimed at the off-roading crowds, with direct access to the dunes. Along the east and south shores of the reservoir, primitive camping is permitted. Reserve campsites online.
