The Fremont River Ranger District is a unit of Fishlake National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It is a district rather than a single trail or peak, so it works as a base for exploring the surrounding forest, with several trails and campgrounds within a few miles. The district is not a place you reserve a spot at. It is a land unit that holds a network of trails and dispersed camping, and the Great Western Trail passes through it. Jahu Flat and Neff's Reservoir are both within about a mile and a half, and Elkhorn Campground is about 2 miles away. For more time on the water, the Fremont River is about 9 miles away and offers canoeing. Round Lake Cua Dispersed camping sits a little farther out, at about 2 miles.
