Located in the southeastern part of Utah, Moab is home to dramatic rock formations, sheer vertical cliffs, and deep canyons framed by majestic snow-capped mountains. Just outside the town, you come upon the surreal red rock landscape of Arches National Park. Less than an hour’s drive will put you atop the Island in the Sky, a remarkable district of Canyonlands National Park that looks out on unending vistas of colorful canyons, mesas, and buttes. Also a short drive away from the city, Dead Horse Point State Park offers amazing views of the snaking Colorado River 600 meters below. Further south of Moab lies the alpine La Sal Mountains, the second-highest range in the state. Such diverse landscape offers plentiful opportunities for mountain biking, hiking, four-wheel driving, or river trips. For a more relaxing time, however, just sit back and enjoy your drive through national parks or on Moab’s three Scenic Byways.
