What to expect

Continuing past the renowned backcountry trail of White Rim Road, you'll discover the hidden life thriving in this seemingly desolate desert. You'll also hear about the uranium history of Canyonlands.
Next, enjoy Basin Overlook and breathtaking views of the Colorado River. Beyond the overlook lies Dead Horse State Park, whose legend matches its eerie name. Entering the national park, you can take a break at the Island in the Sky Visitor Center.
Move on to Shafer Canyon Overlook, which offers views from three sides. Pass the secluded Lathrop Trail before reaching Mesa Arch Trailhead—a definite must-see.

Finally, arrive at the highly popular Grand View Point, where your tour concludes.
