A road trip through Utah wouldn’t be complete without a visit to Valley of the Gods or Monument Valley (which is technically in Arizona). Add in a stop at Goosenecks State Park, and a quick visit to the Four Corners - because why not? - and you’ve got yourself one of the best drives in Utah! Read on to see how best to spend this epic day!

Arches National Park is famous for having hundreds of arches, and if you make the trip out there, you’ll soon see how it got its name. It’s a huge park and people can spend many days exploring it and hiking to all the best viewpoints. But what if you’re short on time and you just want to see some of the highlights of Arches? This post is for you!

When you only have one day to explore Canyonlands National Park, how on Earth do you decide what to see and do? When we visited, we were short on time and wanted to maximize our day to see the best things the park has to offer. Read on to find out how we spent our time in Canyonlands National Park!

The drive between Bryce Canyon National Park and Moab is several hours long but don’t let that deter you from making this journey. With a national scenic byway, a historic trail, and a national park situated in between, this is one of the most interesting and scenic drives you can take!

When researching our trip to Utah, I only knew about Zion and Arches, so I was surprised to discover that there were 3 additional national parks: Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, and Canyonlands! Of those three additional parks, I was most excited to explore Bryce Canyon, it seemed the most unique and unlike anything I’d ever seen before. While planning for our trip, we ended up with quite the bucket list of things to see and do at Bryce Canyon, so here’s what topped our list.

Let me start off by saying one day is not enough time to do Zion National Park justice. You’d need at least two days, or more if you’re traveling during peak season or doing a lot of major hikes. But can you do Zion in one day and feel like it was time well spent? Absolutely!
