Canyonlands National Park

Canyonlands National Park preserves an immense desert wilderness sculpted by the Green and Colorado rivers and featuring hundreds of colorful canyons, mesas, buttes, fins, arches and spires. The Island in the Sky District is the most accessible and popular section of the park — a mesa with spectacular views of the surrounding canyons. The Needles is a vaster territory below the Island in the Sky where visitors can hike among the sandstone spires and breathtaking rocks.

    I was so pleasantly surprised when my friends and I visited Canyonlands earlier this year. I hadn't heard much about it, but it was absolutely stunning. We saw some wildlife, and the scenery was breathtaking. Thank you so much to everyone who works to support and maintain these amazing spaces!

    Park rangers at the visitor center are very friendly and provide important information on current off road trail conditions. Rangers assured me my Subaru outback Wilderness would do well on Long Canyon Trail. They were right and I had the time of my life.
