Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness

Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness is a 50,216-acre federally protected Wilderness Area in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It preserves a primitive backcountry landscape where visitors experience the landscape on foot, with no roads, motorized equipment, or mechanized travel permitted. The wilderness offers hiking and backpacking for those seeking solitude and untrammeled terrain, and all visitors are expected to follow Leave No Trace principles to protect the resource.

Access requires non-motorized entry only—no vehicles, mountain bikes, or other mechanical aids. This is genuine wilderness; plan accordingly with proper preparation, navigation skills, and self-sufficiency. Seasonal snow and weather conditions vary significantly throughout the year and should factor into your trip planning. Check current conditions and any access restrictions with the Forest Service before heading out.
