The town of Magna, Utah sits at the extreme southern tip of the Great Salt Lake and marks the western edge of the Salt Lake City Metropolitan Area. The town was formed under the name Pleasant Green in the mid 19th century as Mormon settlers spread out along the Great Salt Lake. At the beginning of the 20th century, copper mining commenced in the nearby Oquirrh Mountains and the Magna Mill was built to process it. With its construction, the town’s name was changed to sound more unique. In more recent years, Magna has become a bedroom community of Salt Lake City.

Magna is connected to the Salt Lake City Metropolitan Area through an extensive bus network that can get you into the city relatively quickly. Using public transportation when you choose a travel trailer rental in Magna will save you the hassle of driving and finding parking in the city.

Additionally, when you book an RV in Magna, you’ll want to consider the location of basic services like gas stations and grocery stores. Fortunately, the Salt Lake City area is laid out between the Great Salt Lake and the Wasatch Mountains with Interstate 15 running between them. It’s not hard to find all the things you’ll need within a short distance of the highway as Magna sits near the intersection of Interstates 15, 80, and 215.

The Great Outdoors

When you rent an RV in Utah, one of the best things you can do is enjoy some time outside. There are the Wasatch Mountains, which loom over the Salt Lake City area and beckon hikers to climb their high peaks. Mount Timpanogos is one of the most popular due to its proximity to the city and its summit trail traversing several unique ecosystems before reaching the top of the nearly 12,000-foot-high peak. Other famous tall mountains worth climbing include Mount Nebo, Lone Peak, and Deseret Peak.

Great Salt Lake State Park is also just around the corner from Magna and has some of the best views of the unique lake in addition to public boat launches to get out on the water. Kayak rentals are available from a number of sporting goods stores and specialty retailers in the Salt Lake City area.

If you’re just looking for a peaceful place to spend the afternoon with the family, Manga - Copper Park on the town’s northwestern edge is a great place to do it. There’s a playground, a skate park, a few sports fields, and even a golf course nearby if you want to hit the links.

The Pony Express RV Resort and Campground is just up the road from the KOA and offers amenities including a swimming pool, bicycle rentals, a playground, and full hookups for your Magna camper rental.
