Rock Hollow is a 6-mile out-and-back hike on natural surface in the Richfield Ranger District of Fishlake National Forest in Utah. The trail climbs from about 7,360 feet to a high point of 8,271 feet, for a one-way gain of 900 feet. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route is rated hard. The most comfortable months for a visit are typically late spring and early fall. Typical averages from the nearby Koosharem weather station show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 75°F, while July averages about 85°F. That station sits roughly 1,300 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the summit run cooler. Lone Pine Spring is just over half a mile away, and MILOS - BOX CREEK, Koosharem Canyon and Mill Creek are all within about 3 miles. Paddlers can head to Otter Creek, about 8 miles off.
