Description

Explore the hidden side of Canyonlands National Park on this full-day 4x4 adventure along the legendary White Rim Trail. Travel deep into the park’s rugged backcountry in a custom 4x4 vehicle, with optional short hikes into secret canyons, caves, and passageways tucked beneath the White Rim Sandstone.

The White Rim layer forms a massive rock terrace stretching between the Colorado and Green Rivers, creating some of the most expansive and breathtaking views in the park. Along the route, take in panoramic vistas of the Colorado River below and the cliffs of Dead Horse Point above.

Stops include some of Canyonlands’ lesser-seen highlights, such as Goose Neck, Lathrop Canyon, Musselman Arch, and the iconic Shafer Trail. The guided hikes are moderate in difficulty, revealing remote and magical corners of the landscape for those who choose to explore on foot.

A scenic picnic lunch is included, making this a well-rounded day of off-road exploration, natural beauty, and quiet discovery in one of Utah’s most iconic landscapes.

For your convenience, hotel pick-up from most centrally located Moab hotels and campgrounds is available upon request. Alternatively, you are welcome to meet at the NAVTEC Expedition office on Main Street 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time.
