Overview

Babylon Mill is located within the Red Cliffs National Conservation Area of Southern Utah. It's an easy and short out & back trail that leads to multiple campsites and hiking trails. The end of the trail is where you can visit the old Stormont Mill site along the sandy shores of the Virgin River. Along the route, you choose from multiple hiking trails that lead to the old Babylon Mill town-site, a natural arch, petroglyphs, and an old cabin that's a very short hike from the 4x4 trail. The area is very scenic, with large red sandstone cliffs and an abundance of wildlife. Large predator birds can often be seen in the area.
