kolob terrace road印象

Do the drive to the Reservoir and be mesmerized by the blueness of the waters.Hiking is just a car stop and a walk in non directional ways.Let your senses be your guide...So many wonderful hikes to inhale...I remember just sitting there until I heard a grasshopper hop by; I said hello and the grasshopper said goodbye!This day only ended when the thoughts of enjoying a Snickers began to take control.And the earth did not stop spinning...

Well worth the drive. We didn't hike up there, but the drive was very nice. There are mountains and meadows, deer and cattle (on the road). The reservoir at the end wasn't worth the drive, though.

Kolob Terrace Road was our introduction to Zion National Park and it was our favorite part of the entire park. It's relatively deserted here and the views are incredible. Go slow. Take in the views and enjoy the beauty of Kolob.

We went to Kolob Terrace Road as a break from the crowds in the Canyon. The gentle Northgate Peaks Trail was also an attraction. It is a beautiful trail through meadows and forests to an overlook toward Zion Canyon. A great spot to eat your lunch. After the hike keep on driving to Lava Point, Edge of the Plateau for another viewpoint.

This doesn't get the numbers of Zion but is a nice drive and worth stopping off to do a couple of hikes although some require permits. There is a reservoir at the end of the road and some great views on a couple of dirt track roads. Make sure you have food and water because there's nothing much else up there.

Escape from the crowds to Kolob terrace road. The drive takes you through scenic plains and ends up at the reservoir. Take a right a few miles before the reservoir on the dirt road and you'll end up at Lava point - a great place to see Zion from another angle. I combined this drive with a trip to Kolob canyon - perfectly doable in a day.

This is almost 40 miles from Zion Visitor Center. The freeway speeds are higher there, so will not take much time once you hit I-15. The views from the road are good. But the road itself is not too long, so OK for a quick visit in the evening. The trail to natural bridge is like 14 miles and we did not try it this winter. Maybe next time....

The Crew and I were up working in Cedar City last week and after work I took a ride up Kolob Terrace Road on the way back to Cedar. You start out in Virgin Utah and head up the Canyon towards Kolob Lake. The drive gives you great views of red rocks and the forest,You wind up at Kolob Lake which is way down due to Drought this last year. From the lake you can continue on on a dirt road ( County maintained) and come out on old County 91 just south of Cedar City. A great drive if you are in a 4wd or just a Pickup. The Meadows were all in bloom with yellow and purple flowerers and the greenest grass of the year. Made for some great photos and memories. I will be going back again next week for more work in the area and will be taking this Long Cut back from St George to Cedar again.

One of the locals told us about this drive up to Lava Point and the view over the canyon. We were told it takes about 45 minutes each way. Well it took us over an hour one way and that was speeding most of the time. The road is narrow with lots of twists and turns. Signage was not good and we missed several turns. Good thing we had a map and our GPS to help find our way. Towards the top we were on a dirt road and had to go through a very large and deep puddle across the whole road. I was afraid the car would get stuck in the mud but we didn't. Upon finally reaching Lava Point the view was good but not worth the long drive IMHO.

Nice Camping around the lake. Good Fishing. Beautiful part of Zion National Park. Some of the roads in this area are Dirt and not suitable for nice cars; trucks and SUV's should do fine. Most cars should stay on the paved roads.
