The Utah National Parks Council (UNPC) is the local council of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) that serves youth in areas of Utah who live south of Salt Lake County, Utah and in some isolated areas of Nevada and Arizona. It is headquartered in Orem, Utah. As of December 31, 2013, UNPC is the largest of 272 local councils and is geographically within the Western Region of BSA. In 2011, the UNPC was recognized by the Utah Best of State Foundation as Utah's Best Humanitarian Organization. UNPC is a non-profit corporation governed by Scouting policies and a local community-based Executive Board.

UNPC is organized into 21 geographic areas known as Districts, each delivering Scouting programs to their local communities: Alpine, Arapeen, Black Diamond, Bryce Canyon, Cathedral Gorge, Cedar Breaks, Great Basin, High Uintah, Hobble Creek, Iron Horse, Mount Nebo, Orem, Porter Rockwell, Provo Peak, San Juan, Snow Canyon, Tavaputs, Timpanogos, Wasatch and Zion District

UNPC operates eight Scout camps and two high adventure bases throughout central and southern Utah. They include Maple Dell, Tifie, Blue Mountain, High Uintah, Scofield, and Thunder Ridge Scout Camps. Camp Jeremiah Johnson (Cub Scout Day Camp) and Buck Hollow (Adventure Park for New [11 yr old] Scouts and Webelos [10 yr old] Wilderness Adventure) are camps dedicated to serving younger Scouts and Cubs. Entrada and Beaver High Adventure Bases serve primarily Varsity Scout teams and Venturing crews.

UNPC also has Quail Creek Camp and Bacon Park Camp. These areas are used for unit and districts activities, family reunions, and council training courses.

UNPC offers structured youth, adult Scouter, and family in-residence training courses at several of its Scout Camps.
