Hog Springs Recreation Area

Big Spring Canyon Overlook, located at the end of the Needles Park Road in Canyonlands National Park, offers stunning views of unique rock spires and multicolored sandstone benches lining the canyon bend. The area is enriched by the presence of a spring, which supports a variety of trees and plants during the spring and summer months. The trailhead provides access to the challenging Big Spring to Elephant Hill loop, a 10.8-mile hike featuring slickrock benches and breathtaking vistas of sheer cliff walls and rock formations. Visitors should be prepared for a strenuous trek that includes climbing two ladders along the route. Generated from the website
