All the Adventurous Things
Southern Utah offers a blend of exhilarating adventures with its rugged landscapes, perfect for activities like hiking, climbing, and exploring hidden slot canyons. Its stunning red rock formations and expansive desert vistas create a backdrop that is as visually captivating as it is thrilling to explore.
Off-Roading
There are 4x4 tours, ATV rentals, and OHC riding for those who want the rugged outdoors experience.
Sightseeing
See another side of Utah through aerial tours, birdwatching, stargazing, photography, museums and more.
Western Experience
Ghost towns, wagon rides or pack trips, and horseback tours are a great way to travel back in time.
Outdoor Sports
Hikes, bikes, slot canyons, shooting ranges, cross country skiing, fishing, golfing, canyoneering, we've got it all.
UYurt is the perfect basecamp
Southern Utah is, in fact, a treasure trove! Garfield County always has a calendar of upcoming events if you want to rub shoulders with the locals. Here is the best website to discover what is waiting for you: http://www.brycecanyoncountry.com/.
Most areas allow pets but Bryce Canyon National Park does not; there is a kennel service in Panguitch called Pawz Dogz if you're planning a day outing since pets can't be left unattended in the yurts.
For information about Zion National Park visit: www.nationalparks.org/Zion/National-Park. There are many hikes within ZNP that require permits so do some research.
The neighboring county, Kane County, is just a stone’s throw away and they have great information as well: http://www.visitsouthernutah.com
