25 South 200 East

About Us:

Located in the valley between the Markagunt and Pausaugunt Plateaus, Panguitch, Utah is home to some of the most majestic scenery on earth. A Native American Paiute word meaning “Big Fish,” Panguitch is undoubtedly named for the famously plentiful lakes in the nearby mountains, hosting some of the largest rainbow trout in the state and ideal for year-round fishing.

As of the 2000 census, Panguitch reportedly hosts a population of 1,623 people, 502 households, and 392 families. This historically rich town is unassuming, quaint, and full of its own charm. Sprinkled with wild-west history, the city boasts small museums, original architecture, stunning wilderness, and plenty of pioneer spirit.  Just 24 miles northwest of Bryce Canyon and surrounded by many National Parks and Monuments, this magical little town is one of Utah’s best kept secrets.
