What You Will See:
Well, I doubt you will see snow in Snow Canyon, but you will see some marvelous geological formations including lava flows. Snow Canyon offers 16 miles of hiking trails, technical rock climbing, horseback riding, camping and wildlife viewing.
Recreation:
There is one main road through the park. Alongside this road you can enjoy a beautiful paved bike path. From various parking/picnic areas, you can take hikes into the park. Get a trail map as some trails bring you over lava fields past lava caves. If you are lucky you will see wildflowers blooming and perhaps a desert tortoise!
Camping:
There are 17 RV Trailer Sites (Maximum RV Length - 35 ft.), and 24 tent sites. Camping is available year round.
