San Rafael Swell Photo Gallery

All of the ruggedness and beauty of Utah's national Parks without the crowds. The San Rafael Swell is truly Utah's best kept secret. Hundreds of miles of trails for every skill level crisscross the arid landscape. Come see stunning vistas, deep canyons, petroglyphs, pictographs, dinosaur footprints, dinosaur bones, Cleveland Lloyd Dinosaur Quarry, slot canyons, rock hounding, and much more. Trail ratings include beginner, intermediate, advanced, and a few expert trails including the famed Five Miles of Hell. The swell can be ridden year round but it does heat up in the summer so we recommend the technical trails be ridden in the fall, spring and winter. For great summer ridding, check out our Arapeen Trail System page.
