This water-filled slot canyon offers a completely different experience from the dry, crowded routes closer to Moab—making the 1.25-hour drive well worth it for those looking for something truly special.
Located between Moab and Hanksville, this canyon features a rare combination of narrow sculpted slot sections and playful pools, creating a fun, immersive journey that feels more like exploration than a hike.
Because of its remote location and limited access, this canyon sees far fewer visitors than more popular destinations, rewarding those who make the drive with solitude, unique terrain, and a true off-the-beaten-path adventure.
If you’re deciding how to spend a hot day outdoors, this canyon is an excellent option. While the approach can be warm, the shaded canyon and frequent swims make the experience especially rewarding once inside.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Exact meeting instructions are provided after booking. Participants will need a high-clearance 2WD vehicle or better to access the trailhead. If your group has three participants or fewer, transportation from the highway is available. Moab to Meeting Location is 1 hour.
What to expect
Once at the canyon, the route includes approximately 3 miles of hiking through desert terrain, weaving through sculpted sandstone corridors, narrow passages, and open canyon sections. Along the way, you’ll encounter wading and swimming through pools, unique rock features, and engaging terrain that makes this canyon especially memorable.
The route includes one 80-foot rappel and several sections requiring partner-assist movement, adding a fun, interactive element to the experience. Your guide will manage all technical aspects, provide instruction as needed, and ensure safe movement throughout the canyon.
This canyon is especially well suited for hot-weather days, offering shade and water-filled sections that provide natural relief from the desert heat, while still being approachable for fit beginners with a sense of adventure.
