Departure — Trailhead to Sand Dunes (10 minutes) Climb aboard your UTV and head out across the stunning high desert landscape of Southern Utah. Your expert guide will navigate you through exciting off-road trails with breathtaking views of the surrounding canyon country before arriving at the coral pink sand dunes.
Stop 1 — Coral Pink Sand Dunes & Sandboarding Pull up to one of Southern Utah's most unique natural features — towering coral pink sand dunes set against a dramatic red rock backdrop. Grab a sandboard and take a few runs down the dunes for an unforgettable desert experience. Take your time, snap some photos, and enjoy the views before heading deeper into the backcountry.
Sand Dunes to Peekaboo Slot Canyon (5 minutes) Back on the UTV, your guide takes you a short distance further into the desert to one of Kanab's most beloved local secrets.
Stop 2 — Peek-a-Boo Slot Canyon Step off the UTV and into one of Southern Utah's most stunning hidden gems. Peek-a-Boo Slot Canyon is a secluded, narrow canyon tucked away in the high desert and known mostly to locals. Wind through its beautifully sculpted sandstone walls, carved over millions of years into incredible shapes and patterns.

Peekaboo to The Great Chamber (20-30 minutes) Re-board your UTV for the most scenic leg of the journey.

Stop 3 — The Great Chamber Prepare to be amazed. The Great Chamber is a massive natural alcove carved into the desert sandstone — a cathedral-like formation that few visitors ever get to experience. Stand inside one of nature's most spectacular hidden spaces, soak in the scale and silence, and take in views that will stay with you long after you leave. Your guide will share the history and significance of this remarkable geological wonder while you explore and photograph this truly unforgettable location.
