Located in southeast Utah's high desert region, Canyonlands National Park provides a veritable playground for outdoor adventurers. The park boasts an incredible landscape composed of rivers, canyons, sandstone arches, and stony fins, all of which form the backdrop for a range of exciting activities. You can get an overview of what is available at the visitors center and pick up your map. Hikers have at least 15 trails to choose from, while bikers can set off along the 100-mile White Rim Road (also suitable for some 4X4 vehicles).

You could also enjoy a scenic drive along a 34-mile paved road. Other activities include flat-water and whitewater rafting, kayaking, rock climbing, backpacking and camping as well as ranger-led activities for all ages.
