Overview

Located below the west rim of the Sand Hollow OHV area, Long Valley is a very popular area for free camping and easy access to the trails on Sand Mountain. On most weekends, the trailhead area is covered with large RVs and toy haulers. Sometimes the campers travel quite far into the canyon looking for a primitive campsite. The campers use the picturesque valley as a base camp for riding on the dunes or rock crawling the trails around Sand Hollow. This route connects with two prevalent 4x4 routes that climb up Sand Mountain. The first of these trails is Fault Line, a challenging trail for modified vehicles. The second and much safer way up is on the West Rim Lite trail. Running all the way through Long Valley will bring you over to scenic Warner Valley and many other easy trails in the region.
