The Barracks Kiosk is found near the East Fork of the Virgin River. The kiosk itself serves as a staging area for BLM route 20 and other BLM routes in the area. You will also find several dispersed camping sites along the river. BLM routes beyond the Barracks Ranch are suitable for four-wheel-drive jeeps, ATVs, UTVs, horseback, and hiking. These routes are not recommended for street or two-wheel-drive vehicles due to steep inclines, rocky surfaces, narrow routes, and deep sand. For more information, detailed maps, and current conditions, contact the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument Visitor Center in Kanab, UT. Amenities: The Barracks Kiosk offers an unimproved staging area and a map kiosk. Water and other amenities are not available. Please note: The Barracks Ranch is privately owned property. Please be sure that you are camping and/or parking on BLM or state land. This area is also used for grazing. Please be cautious and respectful of the wildlife and range improvements.
You can access the Barracks Kiosk by traveling north out of Kanab, UT on Highway 89 for 16 miles. Then, make a left hand turn onto a dirt road just after the concrete barricade on the western side of the road, 0.5 miles from the town of Mount Carmel Junction. Once on the dirt road, travel 0.5 miles to the Barracks Kiosk. This portion of the road is graveled and is easily traveled on by two-wheel-drive vehicles.
