Overview

Lockhart Canyon is near the Canyonlands National Park Needles District, directly off the famous and iconic Lockhart Basin. It is an entirely different driving experience altogether than the more popular trail. Taking you to the edge of the Colorado River, it travels deep into a canyon, following a wash almost the entire time. Remote and scenic, this off-road trail gives you plenty of fun wash driving and should be done if you are driving the entire Lockhart Basin Trail.
