Pink Cliffs, Limestone cliffs in southwestern Utah, United States

The Pink Cliffs stretch across Garfield, Iron, and Kane counties, forming distinctive pink and red limestone formations that rise 2,653 meters above sea level.

Geologist Clarence Dutton named these formations in the 1870s as part of the Grand Staircase, a sequence of cliffs extending from Utah to the Grand Canyon.

The protected areas within the Pink Cliffs, including Bryce Canyon National Park and Cedar Breaks National Monument, preserve significant geological and natural heritage.

The cliffs create a U-shaped formation that spans three counties, with access points through Bryce Canyon National Park and Cedar Breaks National Monument.

The limestone structures of the Pink Cliffs constitute multiple rock formations rather than a single cliff face, creating distinct geological patterns across the landscape.
