Canyonlands is a gigantic national park with four different areas. The Mesa Arch trail in the Islands in the Sky area is one of the most popular and easiest hikes in the park. It’s especially popular to hike at sunrise, when photographers can get a shot of the sun rising right behind the arch.
Double Arch Trail
The iconic Double arch was one of the filming locations for the opening scene of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Other interesting rock formations can be found all along the trail, including these elephant shaped ones. If you only have time to do one trail in Arches, this one is perfect for the whole family.
Window Arch
The windows trail is one of the most popular in Arches national park, and for good reason. The windows arch is also referred to as the spectacles, because it’s two arches on the same sandstone fin separated by a wall that looks like a nose piece. The windows are so impressive to see in person, because every angle presents completely unique views of each arch.
Swing Arm city
On the way to Capitol Reef, you can stop at an amazing roadside park called Swing Arm City. This gray Martian landscape is an awe-inspiring place to fly a drone or ride an ATV. ATV enthusiasts and bikers have a blast riding up and down the sloping gray hills.
The Bentonite hills
If you put Bentonite Hills into a map’s app, you’ll actually arrive at a road through private property that requires 4-wheel drive, and when we went, this road was in very poor condition. Fortunately, you can find these amazing views of the same bentonite hills Along Cathedral Road which also takes you to the temples of the sun and moon.
Temple of Sun, Moon, and Glass Mountain
The Temples of the moon and sun and glass mountain are found in the far northeast corner of capitol reef NP, known as cathedral valley. This is a magical place that is never crowded, because the drive to get there is quite an adventurous one.
Cathedral valley
It is the most remote and otherworldly part of Capitol Reef NP. IT’s a landscape that makes you feel small and inspires reverence for nature.
Fremont culture petroglyph.
These petroglyphs were carved around a thousand years ago by the Fremont culture, a people who lived in the area before the Navajo and Ute tribes, and who were both hunters and farmers.
The Heber valley railroad
A very fun family activity with beautiful views and entertaining performers. We went on the cowboy train, and they also have many other theme trains like princess and superhero trains.

Fantastic!! I’ve heard of beautiful Utah, but now I want to go and experience it in person!

I've never been there but you show Utah in a different way 😍😍😍
Hi my friend!! So glad to hear from you!! Utah is gorgeous!

Thank you so much
The arches were incredible as were the drone shots!
Thank you! I'm so glad you got to see all these places in person too 💗
Utah is stunning!
In our new Utah video, we explore the top sights in Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef, as well as some incredible hidden gems many pass by! Hope you find it useful in planning your own future Utah roadtrip, or just enjoy soaking in the sun-drenched views from the comfort of your own home (and AC! 🤣)
I cannot believe that you didn't take 15 minutes to swing by Dead Horse Point State Park while in Moab. Simply the best view in all of Utah.
Sadly, we didn't have enough time to visit all the places that we wanted, still, everywhere you look and visit in Utah is stunning and unique. We will certainly visit Dead Horse Point in our next visit 😀 👍
@@natalieandgabriel It's a moral imperative. 😀
🙂 Don't worry, we promise we will not miss it next time!
BTW, was trying to remove a hair from my screen and realized it was your profile pic 😆 🤣 😂
Pregasaurus. 🥰😍
Thanks for watching Alyssa! Let's talk soon 💗
Hope we can go back to Canyonlands and Arches in the winter sometime 🤣 I actually got heatstroke in Arches while we were filming this!! Had to chill in the car and let Gabi finish up the filming while just putting my feet up and drinking water 😂😂
I bet it's beautiful in the winter
❤❤
