The Needles were named for the colorful spires of Cedar Mesa Sandstone that dominate the area. The Needles is a remote district located within the southern portion of Canyonlands National Park in southeastern Utah. The Needles District is 1.5 hours from Moab, Utah.
Needles is a rugged wilderness of buttes and mesas that sprawls outward in a tapestry of oranges and reds. Home to a vast network of trails that weave between 100-plus-foot-tall red-and-white-striped sandstone columns. Showcasing some of southern Utah’s most dramatic desert scenery.
