Iron County



This fall, the UOT Community & Partner Relations team hit the road for exciting partner tours in Juab, Sanpete, and Iron counties. From stunning landscapes to unique experiences, we discovered what makes each of these areas truly special and the incredible people behind their tourism efforts. Camille Johnson, Director of Community and Partner Relations, shares her experience.
UOT's tour of Iron County was an unforgettable experience, guided by the seasoned tourism director, Maria Twitchell. At Outpost X, you can live out your Star Wars dreams with lodging, food, hot tubs, a cold plunge, and even a mud bath. Plus, borrow a Sand Speeder and race across the dry lake bed! Iron County is the OG of certified Dark Sky destinations, with Cedar Breaks being the first in Utah. The county continues to expand astrotourism and agrotourism.
