Canyonlands is a vast wilderness of deep canyons, tall mesas, and buttes carved by the Colorado and Green Rivers. The park is split into districts, with Island in the Sky offering wide views from high above the twisting rivers.
It is famous for the graceful Mesa Arch that frames the sunrise and for endless canyon views that feel like a giant maze. Adventurers love mountain biking, rafting, and stargazing under some of the darkest skies around.
From the high overlooks you can see layers of colorful canyons stretching all the way to the horizon.
Families enjoy the short walk to Mesa Arch, scenic drives, and boat trips down the calm and rushing rivers.
Named an International Dark Sky Park, it is one of the best places in America to see thousands of stars.
