Hike the White Rim Overlook

If you're entering Canyonlands from the north (Island in the Sky side), don't miss this quick hike! This hike is fairly level the entire way and not too long—perfect for kids.

Follow Grand View Point Road down towards the middle of the park, then turn left at the sign for the White Rim Overlook. Park at the parking lot and there's a sign marking the start of the trail. Pretty soon you'll hit a kind of small hill—go to the right. The trail isn't really visible, so follow the cairns. You'll walk past plenty of interesting rock formations and cactus plants. The trail ends at a precipice overlooking the canyonlands. Amazing views in almost every direction!
