We’re slickrock-bound this spring—get your canyon country fix now before the mercury spikes!
Between the bright blooms, long days, and pleasant temperatures, spring on the Colorado Plateau is bursting with potential. So pack away your winter gear, and say hello to springtime adventures!
Corona Arch Trail
Arches National Park isn’t the only place to see the namesake formation. The Corona Arch Trail, just outside Moab, crosses delightful slickrock benches to reach the 140-foot-wide, 105-foot-tall partially freestanding arch. Check out this hike ›
Dead Horse Point State Park
Escape the national park crowds at Dead Horse Point State Park. Its network of trails offers equally stunning views, including the Colorado River and the La Sal, Abajo, and Henry mountains. Hike one trail, or hike them all! See the map ›
Lost and Squaw Canyons Trail
If slickrock suits your fancy, the loop through Lost and Squaw canyons is simply stunning. Time this hike in the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park right, and you might catch the spring flowers. Details ›
