Cabin Hollow is an easy, 2.3-mile out-and-back hike on natural surface in the Ogden Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in northern Utah. The trail runs from a low point of about 7,567 feet to a high of about 7,975 feet, a 400-foot climb. It is managed by the Forest Service, and the Forest Service lists it as not accessible. Bikes and horses are both allowed, which makes it a practical outing for riders or horseback travelers. The trip works well as a short outing within the forest, and the season is open from May 15 to November 1. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Evanston, Wyoming, put July highs around 82°F with lows near 53°F, and the station sits about 800 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the higher ground run cooler. Neponset Spring is about 0.7 miles away, and Bluff Spring and Hatch Spring are each within about a mile and a half. For an overnight stay, Monte Cristo Campground lies about 4.6 miles off.
