Overview

Kanarra Mountain Road is a scenic gateway to the higher elevations of the Kolob Terrace in southern Utah. The route travels up a picturesque canyon with bright red sandstone cliffs before reaching the cooler temperatures and scenic vistas above 9000 feet. While this route may not offer much camping, the route leads to Kolob Terrace Road which leads to some truly memorable lakeside camping at Kolob Reservoir. At the trailhead, be sure to stop at the large wooden sign that has a brief description of the South Rim of the Great Basin. You'll read how the region was formed and explored by the early settlers. The Kolob Terrace region of southern Utah is intertwined with a vast network of county roads leading to countless private vacation homes.
