The Fish Springs Range is a 32-kilometre (20 mi) long, narrow, north-south trending mountain range located in center-west Juab County, Utah.[1] The northeast of the range borders the Fish Springs National Wildlife Refuge; the entire east of the range borders the Fish Springs Flat, where the east region of the flat borders the Thomas Range.
The Fish Springs Range lies at the south of the Great Salt Lake Desert[2]. It is in the geologic province known as the Basin and Range.
The south of the range borders the north of Tule Valley.
