Kanab Creek Trail

Kanab Creek Trail is a hiking route that winds through steep canyons and along creek beds, connecting different points across the landscape. The terrain shifts between narrow rock walls and open waterways that cut through the land.

The creek was a significant place for Native American tribes for hundreds of years, with evidence of their settlements still visible today. Archaeological finds such as rock carvings show their long presence in this region.

The trail passes through territories that hold meaning for several Native American communities whose presence shapes how visitors experience this land. You can notice signs of their connection to the place as you walk.

Reaching the starting point requires a vehicle with high ground clearance to navigate forest roads. Overnight camping in the area requires advance permission.

Along the route is a spring with hanging gardens where ferns and colorful flowers grow directly from the rock walls. This unexpected oasis stands out sharply against the dry surroundings.
