Magazine cover views abound at the end of this short out-and-back trail to the Kane Creek Canyon Overlook. The rocky, bumpy, 1.5-mile-long slow-going trail offers continuous unobstructed views of Behind the Rocks and the La Sal Mountains before ending at a spectacular viewpoint overlooking Kane Creek Canyon. This 360° panoramic view is like no other in Moab.
During the drive, you will encounter 6-8" rock steps mixed with loose dirt that can be completed in stock-type 4x4s with durable tires and high-ground clearance. At the end of the trail, you cross an old drill platform area that is large and flat, suitable for several vehicles camping with offroad trailers, rooftop tents, or ground tents. The overlook can accommodate 4-6 vehicles safely and offers a small, level spot used for camping but has little shelter from the wind.
