The Trail to Castle Gardens is fairly flat and open, but this is some of the most beautiful, remote landscape in Wyoming.
Castle Gardens is maintained by the Bureau of Land Management, so the lands are public. To get to Castle Gardens, you’ll have to take a remote road from Riverton, in Fremont County. Be sure to gas up before setting off on your journey, as you won’t find any services along the way. The BLM recommends taking a high clearance, 4×4 vehicle. Click here for directions from Riverton.
