Things to do nearHells Revenge Safari Route
Hells Revenge Safari Route is a legendary off-road trail near Moab, Utah, known for its slickrock domes, dramatic canyon views, and technical 4x4 challenges.
Hells Revenge Safari Route sits just east of Moab along the Sand Flats Recreation Area, a stretch of open slickrock that has drawn four-wheel-drive enthusiasts for decades. The trail follows a marked path across Entrada sandstone, the same warm orange rock that forms the arches and fins visible throughout the region.
The route covers roughly five miles one way and includes several named obstacles, among them the Hell's Gate ledges and the iconic Hell's Revenge bowl, a steep concave slope that tests both nerve and vehicle capability. Observers often gather at these features to watch rigs navigate the technical sections.
Beyond the driving challenge, the route passes viewpoints overlooking the Colorado River gorge and the La Sal Mountains, offering a panoramic perspective on the canyon landscape. Hikers and mountain bikers also use portions of the Sand Flats area, giving the place an active, communal atmosphere.
For anyone drawn to the raw geology and open sky of the Colorado Plateau, Hells Revenge Safari Route delivers an experience that is both technically engaging and visually unforgettable.
7-day forecast
Chance of rainTips for visiting Hells Revenge Safari Route
Visit in spring or fall when temperatures stay manageable and the slickrock is dry for better traction.
Bring at least two gallons of water per person since there are no services along the route.
Air down your tires to around 15 psi before you start for improved grip on the sandstone surfaces.
Spot the painted tire markers carefully at each intersection, as the route can be disorienting on open rock.
Arrive early in the morning to secure parking near the trailhead and avoid the midday desert heat.
