Silver Falls Road is a short 3.5-mile out-and-back trail traveling into the wide mouth of a canyon that eventually narrows as the path of Silver Falls Creek makes its way to the Escalante River. The motorized route comes to a dead-end at the boundary of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.
The general area around the start of the trail is also home to the historic Sneaky Prospect and Hotshot Prospect uranium mines, which are part of the Circle Cliffs Mining District.
A dispersed campsite can be found roughly 3 miles down the trail, with two more at the very end. If you plan to overnight camp within Grand Staircase - Escalante National Monument, be sure to obtain a Backcountry Permit at the Escalante Interagency Visitor Center or in most of the trail register boxes at hiking trailheads. Backcountry Permits for overnight stays are free and assist the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) with tracking public land use and can also assist with emergency response efforts. Day use does not require a backcountry permit, but please sign the trail register.
