Known the world over, Utah’s 100-mile White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park comes on like a natural rollercoaster, looping in and out of a multi-colored array of spires, arches, buttes, and mesas carved by the Green and Colorado Rivers.
But the added value of Canyonlands is its staggering remoteness. The closest light bulb hangs at least 50-miles away. Our returning guests relate that it’s this great sense of solitude, along with the fantastic camping opportunities, that brings them back.
A primitive trail framed by blooming cacti below, and snow-capped mountains above, the White Rim Trail descends a series of beguiling slickrock outcrops to its namesake, a unique sandstone pedestal. We spend much of our trip riding this famous off-road route and detour briefly to admire the natural landmarks, the cool Colorado River, and the rock platform vistas.
Signature switchback trails set against the great Utah outback means a trip you’ll savor for years.
