The Fremont River is a river in central Utah, United States. It is a tributary of the Dirty Devil River, which ultimately flows into the Colorado River. The Fremont River is named after the Fremont culture, a pre-Columbian Native American culture that inhabited the region from about 600 to 1300 AD.

The river flows through Capitol Reef National Park, a stunning and geologically diverse national park known for its colorful canyons, cliffs, and monoliths. The park is in south-central Utah and part of the Waterpocket Fold, a nearly 100-mile-long warp in the Earth's crust.
The Fremont River contributes to the unique landscapes found in Capitol Reef National Park, providing water that has significantly shaped the terrain over millions of years. Visitors to the park can enjoy scenic drives, hiking trails, and the opportunity to explore the geological wonders created by the Fremont River and other natural forces.
