Emery County, Utah

Emery Location Map Utah

Emery County is part of canyon country. It sprawls across east-central Utah, a land of mesas and hidden gorges. It’s mostly rural, with a handful of small towns across the landscape.

Coal mining shaped the county’s history. These days, it’s all about outdoor recreation. The San Rafael Swell is a geological wonder. Think slot canyons and towering buttes.

You’ll find ancient rock art here too. Goblin Valley State Park looks like another planet. The Green River cuts through the eastern part of the county. It’s quiet out here, but that’s the point. Folks come to Emery County to get away from it all.
