Flight Park State Recreation Area

Flight Park State Recreation Area Campground in Lehi, Utah, offers a raw and adventurous camping experience defined by expansive open spaces and its proximity to world-class hang-gliding and paragliding opportunities at the iconic Point of the Mountain. The campground’s flat terrain and minimal facilities cater to those who prioritize spectacular views and thrilling outdoor activities over luxury.

The campground provides designated sites for tent and RV camping, but its simplicity stands out: there are no water hookups, showers, or typical amenities, though a two-stall vault toilet is available. High winds are a notable challenge here, requiring well-anchored setups, but they also create perfect conditions for paragliding, a key draw for many visitors. Watching pilots take off against the backdrop of the Wasatch Mountains is a unique highlight, even for non-flyers.

Situated less than 30 minutes from both Salt Lake City and Provo, the campground is conveniently located and surrounded by a mix of natural beauty and urban resources. The area’s distinctive geological features and reliable thermals make it a hub for flight enthusiasts worldwide. Though spartan, this campground provides a memorable base for short stays, day trips, or weekend getaways focused on adventure and scenic splendor.
