Curtis Bench Trail viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Going all the way to the top here is rewarded with a beautiful view of the state park. Take your time to notice the different colors of the layers and the variety of cool geological formations.

Goblin Valley State Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

The state parks are not as spectacular as the National Parks, but always worth a visit. The peculiarity here is that there are no fixed routes. You can move freely and experience the rock formations more intense. At night it is especially dark, because the next artificial light sources are miles away. This results in a particularly good view of the starry sky. But we did not wait because our schedule did not allow it.
