Canyonlands National Park

Islands in the Sky, a district of Canyonlands National Park located 32 miles west of Moab UT, offers stunning views of the canyon country below from its 1,500-foot mesa. Visitors can enjoy 20 miles of paved roads with pullouts for viewing, short hikes to the mesa top, or longer backpacking trails to the Colorado River. Kids can follow cairns along the sandstone ground, and visitors can gain a birds-eye view of the area they will explore during a Utah river rafting adventure in Cataract Canyon. We especially recommend this outing before family river rafting adventures.

Visitors can see 8,000 feet of earth’s strata, pinnacles, buttes, and rock layers deposited by oceans, wind, and water.
