Hitting the spot: which Utah park is right for you? Not looking to sleep in the dirt? The town of Moab offers everything you could hope for from a mountain town, from name-brand hotels to quirky, family-owned ranch houses to microbreweries serving up juicy burgers and fries. Permits for biking, backpacking, or 4-wheel adventuring along the famous White Rim Road book up well in advance and are a phenomenal way to nab panoramic views of the high desert and Green River. Whether you’re looking to tear up the trails on a mountain biking tour, hike through vast, rust-colored mesas and tablelands, or squeeze through slot canyons, this slice of eastern Utah is not for the faint of heart.īoth Arches and Canyonlands have well-positioned roadside campgrounds within the parks, but intrepid tourists who trek off the beaten path will be rewarded with one of the most extensive backcountry camping programs in the parks system at Canyonlands. Skip the crowds at Zion and head north to experience what puts Moab on every adventurer’s map – close proximity to the striking red rocks at both Arches and Canyonlands. Location: Eastern Utah Best for: Mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing, backpacking, boating, car camping March Weather: 60° F (high) / 34° F (low) Canyonlands has the magical southwestern landscapes and adventure opportunities you're looking for on an early spring road trip © Jeff R Clow / Getty Images Canyonlands and Arches National Parks
