2022 Best ATV Tours In Bryce Canyon National Park

Bryce Canyon National Park has some of the most beautiful, scenic views in the Western U.S. There you will also set your eyes on some of the best overlooks, which can only be accessed by dirt roads. The roads are 4x4, which are great for ATV’s. Bryce Canyon is a favorite place to visit in Southern Utah, and has a vast array of four wheel drive trails around the park. Contact us for a tour, our guides will make sure that you can concentrate on the adventure. If you visit the park alone, you will need detailed maps and have to know the park.

Bryce Canyon is an array of natural bowls or amphitheaters which is filled with unevenly eroded spires of rocks called hoodoos. Bryce Canyon National Park has the largest number of hoodoos on earth. Bryce is distinctive, due to the hoodoos. They are geological structures, formed by frost weathering and stream erosion of the river and lake bed sedimentary rocks. The red, orange, and white colors of the rocks provide spectacular views for park visitors. Bryce Canyon National Park is an alpine forest and has as many red rock hoodoos as it does trees. The alpine habitat is home to dozens of birds and species of mammals.

Bryce Canyon National Park is much smaller, and sits at a much higher elevation than nearby Zion National Park. The rim at Bryce varies from 8,000 to 9,000 feet (2,400 to 2,700 m).

Bryce Canyon is very unique, as it is not one individual canyon. In Bryce Canyon National Park you will experience breathtaking views. There are four main viewpoints, all within the first few miles of the park. The viewpoints are Inspiration Point, Sunrise Point , Bryce Point, and Sunset Point. You can find other viewpoints as you travel the park’s 18-mile main road. Experience Bryce Canyon’s abundant western history. Explore the hideouts for Western outlaws such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

Bryce Canyon National Park lies within the Colorado Plateaugeographic province of North America and straddles the southeastern edge of the Paunsaugunt Plateau west of the Paunsaugunt Fault (Paunsaugunt is Paiute for "home of the beaver"). Park visitors arrive from the plateau part of the park and look over the plateau's edge toward a valley containing the fault and the Paria River just beyond it (Paria is Paiute for "muddy or elk water"). The edge of the Kaiparowits Plateau bounds the opposite side of the valley.

ROAM Outdoor Adventure Co. was an amazing experience and an absolute must do in Southern Utah!! We did the ATV tour which went to Cutler’s Point/Great Chamber and Peekaboo Slot Canyon, and our tour guide Mike was great! He gave us tons of info about the places we went to and ensured everyone had a great time! Both the ATV ride and the hiking were so fun, all the staff were so friendly, and the locations were beautiful; all around such a great experience and I would definitely do it again :) - Humnah

The Great Chamber ATV Tour

Embark on an adrenaline ATV ride to one of the most must see gems of Kanab . A colossal 200-foot-tall hidden cove and massive sandhill shaped by desert winds over thousands of years. Plan for a short .25 hike with an uphill sandy ascent into the entrance. If the hike doesn't leave you breathless then the stunning views and epic scale of this natural wonder. Truly a photographer’s paradise! Explore The Great Chamber ATV Tours.

The Great Chamber is located near Kanab in the Grand Staircase Escalante Region at Cutler Point in Utah. The Great Chamber at Cutler Point is a large open dome with a tall sand hill. The Great Chamber is perfect for taking photographs. Great Chamber is more of a scenic viewing area, so it is less of a hike. It is best to use a tour guide who knows the area well as it can be difficult if you attempt to find and navigate the Great Chamber on your own.

Driving on sand can be difficult if you don’t have experience. Don’t worry, our expert guides will lead your atv tour.

Tips for sand driving that will elevate your experience:

Roam adventure company is absolutely wonderful! I only have positive and wonderful things to say. They definitely exceeded my expectations! We booked for two tours, the first tour we did ATV with Hal and it was incredible and super fun! Hal is super friendly, funny and a great photographer! He went above and beyond! He drove us to the canyons, we checked out Peek A Boo slot Canyon which was incredible, totally breathtaking! Then we checked out The Great Chamber, that was absolutely awesome! Hal took us some amazing photos!! The next day we did rappelling in the Via Ferrata with Mike. Read more . - Maria

Tour the area with an experienced guide

I cannot say enough wonderful things about ROAM. We were originally going to go through another company, but when we heard about what ROAM offered, we changed our minds. We are SO glad we did. We did the ATV Combo Tour of the Great Chamber and Peek-a-Boo. Mike was beyond amazing. Not just professional and friendly, but so knowledgeable. He even captured some amazing pics in the Chamber and filled us in on local history. I am not very adventurous, but this was fun and Mike was even patient when we needed a break on the hikes or just wanted to stop to take in the sites or snap photos. Highly recommend using ROAM OutDoor for your next adventure! - Tiffany

The Half Day'er: Peek-a-boo Slot Canyon, The Great Chamber, and Hoodoos

Our longest ATV tour! First taking you to the legendary Peek-a-boo Slot canyon , then to The Great Chamber, and ending at the scenic Hoodoos. Sure, it will be an adventure packed day! Explore The Half Day'er ATV Tour.

Hoodoos are tall skinny shafts of rock that protrude from the bottom of arid basins. They are an array of natural bowls or amphitheaters which are filled with unevenly eroded spires of rocks. Hoodoos are mostly found in High Plateau regions, but they are nowhere more abundant anywhere in the world than the northern part of Bryce Canyon National Park.

We booked the Half Day’er ATV tour, which included Peekaboo Slot Canyon, the Great Chamber, & the Hoodoos. Mike was our tour guide and he was absolutely awesome to spend the afternoon with. We had a group of 8 and were in town for a friend’s birthday. We all had ample opportunity to take turns driving the ATVs, got lots of drive time in, and got some good hiking in at each of the locations. The ATVs themselves are quality, brand new Canams— definitely incredibly cool.

Each location is so different, the views were amazing, and Mike never once made us feel rushed through any of it. At the Great Chamber, Mike essentially gave us our own little photo shoot and recommended some great shots to get. At the Hoodoos, it had just gotten done raining and getting up the sloped rock was slippery and pretty difficult. Mike took the time to help those who still wanted to try and climb up and then helped us back down. The Peekaboo Slot Canyon was probably our favorite stop and we spent quite a bit of time there, Mike had some really interesting tidbits to share.

All in all, our afternoon spent with the Roam Outdoor Adventure Co. was worth every single penny and every single minute it took us to drive there (we drove 3 hours). I’d highly recommend them to anyone vacationing in the Zion area.

ROAM Outdoor Adventures was the experience of a lifetime! Our group of 4 did the Half Dayer with an option of sand boarding and it was the best day of our trip! Our guide, Mikey, was nothing short of gold. He navigated us through the desert like a champ. He had a wealth of stories and knowledge worth a week of campfires! These views of our countryside are unparalleled. FYI the hike to the Great Chamber is in the desert, uphill and through thick sand. It is not a simple hike. Bring lots of water. ROAM was kind enough to provide extra water as well. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Adventure on! - Thomas

The 3 Best ATV Tours in Bryce Canyon Country

Experience the wind rustling through your hair, the fresh smells penetrating your soul, and the amazing sights not diminished by a glass window..

ATV riding is one of the most enjoyable ways to truly experience Bryce Canyon Country. The area is overflowing with breathtaking trails that go through diverse sceneries so your eyes will never grow bored. Many visitors use the town of Panguitch as a home base for their ATV adventures since it is close to many different trails. Although Bryce Canyon has many amazing ATV tours, we’ve listed three trails that we consider are some of the best.

Casto Canyon

Casto Canyon is beautifully decorated with spires of orange rock that tower high above the canyon walls and that are surrounded by the forested scents of pine and cedar. This 36-mile round-trip trail goes through the magnificent formations of red hoodoos, pink and white sandstone cliffs, and the ever-deepening greens of the ponderosa pines in Casto Canyon.

The Casto Canyon ATV journey is fairly easy to travel on, yet will provide you with rugged terrain through the twists, dips, and sharp turns of Utah’s rocky, desert landscape. Prepare for a full day of sightseeing, great photo opportunities, and of course, snack breaks to soak in the amazing views such as Peterson Point. You should allow for up to five hours for this ride. This trail can be accessed by either Highway 89 or Highway 12. Panguitch, Utah is a great place to start looking for ATV rentals like American ATV Rentals.

Badger Creek Loop

Deep in Dixie National Forest, Badger Creek Loop is an ATV run you’ll not want to miss. This 20-mile trail is full of high mountain meadows, thick shaded forest canopies, orange hoodoos, and mixed conifer forests, making the views along Badger Creek Loop legendary. This ATV tour starts from Tropic Reservoir, and once you reach the top of the Paunsaugunt plateau, you will overlook the rural town of Hatch.

Most riders allow around three hours for this round-trip ride, to have enough time for camera stops of the breathtaking scenery. Although there are no trail restrictions, side-by-sides will not fit through the terrain in some locations along the trail. Check-in with Bryce Wildlife Adventure for a close and reliable ATV rental company and for guided ATV tours.

Powell Point

The last of our top three epic ATV tours is the big kahuna, the ultimate grand finale of scenic sites—the colossal vista of Powell Point. At the viewpoint, you will enjoy a slight break off the ATV with a 3/4 mile hike at the top with an elevation of well over 10,000 feet. Once at the top, you’ll understand why we included this trail as one of the best ATV tours. Powell Point is a lofty perch that provides a stunning view of southern Utah and parts of northern Arizona.

Powell Point ATV tour is a 20-mile round-trip beauty with no trail restrictions and can be reached from Scenic Byway 12. Bryce Canyon ATV Adventures will help you get situated and provide the necessary equipment to make your adventure even more memorable.

Most loops can accommodate full sized vehicles, but there are a couple trails that have small sections that require ATVs < 50”.

These trails open in late Spring depending on snow/conditions. To minimize damage to the roads they don’t open until the snow has melted and the roads are mostly dry.

You can still ski and snowshoe on the trails during the winter, but they’re closed to motorized traffic.

Five different parking areas are available to access the different loops. Most of the trailheads have vault toilets and loading ramps.
