Emery County is known as Castle Country Utah, with a landscape peppered by great monolithic buttes which  dominate the landscape of the San Rafael Swell. Along its eastern flank, the Book Cliffs rise 2000 feet above the  valley floor. On the western edge of the county, the Wasatch Plateau rises similarly above the valley floor, creating a  dramatic backdrop to the towns.
The center of the county is taken by the immense, rugged and remote San Rafael Swell. The San Rafael is  truly a national treasure, with thousands of opportunities for adventure. From wilderness to ATV trails and from  horseback riding to mountain bike trails, you are sure to find a great back country experience.
			The area's rugged scenery is home to a rich history from ancient American Indians, cowboys and outlaws, settlers and miners, railroads and crossroads.  The area's geology and paleontology is world renowned with prolific dinosaur quarries. The Museum of the San Rafael and the Cleveland-Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry are open to visitors that wish to learn more about this diverse past.
Emery County has some of the most scenic wild lands in all of Utah. The area can be explored by many modes of   transportation, including hiking, biking, ATV's and 4x4's, as well as miles of great horse trails.
