Grand Canyon & Utah’s Mighty 5 Suggested RV Itinerary
Las Vegas - 1 night (optional)
Fly into Las Vegas and take in the bright city lights of the Strip or pick from a variety of shows to entertain the whole group.
Zion NP - 3 nights
Zion’s unique mix of towering red rock, evergreen trees and the shimmering Virgin River provides not only stunning views, but also abundant activities. Wade through the river with a hike in the Narrows and utilize the park’s shuttle to explore the many hikes and overlooks.
Bryce Canyon NP - 2 nights
Explore Bryce’s hoodoos by wandering the canyon floors or taking them in from the many lookout points above. A horseback ride takes you up close and personal to these irregularly eroded spires, or you can explore the terrain on a wild ATV ride.
Capitol Reef NP - 1 night
Truly a geological wonder, Capitol Reef provides a density of activities within close proximity of the main road, giving you easy access to witness everything this park has to offer. Peer into vast canyons, step back in time with walls of petroglyphs, and hike through a towering gorge.
Moab - 3 nights
Perfectly situated in the middle of Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, Moab is the perfect hub to explore the best of canyon country. Moab itself offers world-class mountain biking and off-roading, as well as rafting trips down the Colorado River.
Monument Valley - 1 night
A wide-open, western range dotted with sandstone towers, the photo opportunities are endless here. Hire a guide to show you the best this area has to offer and learn the history and geology of this special region.
Grand Canyon - 1-2 nights
One of the world’s largest attractions is one not to be missed. Take in the views from above (maybe even by helicopter!) or take a hike or mule ride around the canyon rim. Either way, you’ll be stunned by the beauty that this geological wonder brings.
Lake Mead - 1 night
Drive old Route 66 to Lake Mead, where you’ll find huge plateaus, magnificent canyons, expansive desert, and over 700 miles of shoreline. Tour the Hoover Dam or walk across the Mike O-Callaghan-Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge.
