Zion National Park
The highlight of Zion National Park is an expansive canyon. Averaging 2,000 feet deep, Zion Canyon offers hiking opportunities along its floor in the 20 to 30 foot wide area known as The Narrows and the challenging area known as The Subway…
Kolob Canyon
Get a feel for Kolob Canyons by taking the five-mile scenic drive on Kolob Canyons Road, the only paved road in this section of the park.
Sand Hollow
Sand Hollow is a very scenic area with beautiful blue water and a landscape of red sandstone. Sand Hollow Reservoir is a great place to boat, fish, and dive, and off-highway vehicles can be used to explore and ride the dunes of Sand Mountain. After that, RV or tent camp in a campground or on the beach.
Biking at Gooseberry Mesa
While the thought of southern Utah conjures up images of red rock, cowboys, and cattle in many visitors’ minds, those of us who are lucky enough to live in the area know that the wide variety of landscapes is what makes this the outdoor enthusiast’s playground.
