Island on the horizon

Most start here, the district nearest to Moab. Have a drive to Grand View Point Overlook for grand perspective, and, if you want digging a little much deeper, you are able to choose the easy two-mile hike. Mesa Arch can also be quick &lifier pretty, or go ahead and take 100-mile Whitened Rim Road if you wish to descend for any couple of days—reserve a weekend permit several weeks ahead of time with this epic road, please.

Southeast from the Colorado River, Needles holds 100 stunning hikes and world-class off-roading. Plenty to determine on day hikes (Pothole Point, Cave Springs) or drive and camping a couple of days for more (Chesler Park Loop). Investigate the streets, book your park permits, optimize your 4WD and cut as deep in to the Canyonlands map while you dare.

The Maze

The (wild) west district. Don’t click here. It’s too remote and you aren't tough enough. And it is too beautiful to tolerate (see: Toy house Maze Overlook). Okay, fine. Should you insist. But take extra water, extra gas, a Gps navigation along with a topo map of Canyonlands. Your phone can’t help you save here.

In Canyonlands Park, Utah goes wild. The suggestions above, plus gnarly whitewater at Cataract Canyon, existence-size petroglyphs and pictographs in the Great Gallery in Horseshoe Canyon, and enable-only camping, off-roading, hiking and rafting. Over sleeping true, quiet darkness.
