Explore secret petroglyph sites and a mini-slot canyon on this half-day adventure on the wild, less-traveled side of Snow Canyon State Park. This rugged, off-trail ~3 or ~5-mile tour (you choose) crosses varied terrain and takes between 3-4+ hours.
DISCLAIMER: Rugged terrain, including thick sand and rocky sections, uneven, slanted, slick rock traverses that may involve heights, and minor scrambling. MANY step ups and downs. These factors and an elevation of 3,500 feet require a moderate fitness level, sturdy shoes with good tread, and no significant knee or hip issues.
Here's how a happy hiker described this tour:
"My friends and I had a blast! Lydia knew all the best spots – there is no way we would have found these! Within minutes, we were climbing around the red rock like kids. Lydia brought us near the mysterious slot canyon, gave us a couple of hints, and let us discover 3 sets of amazing petroglyphs on our own—one of the coolest hikes I’ve done!"

I wanted to see something truly unique, and Lydia's Secret Petroglyph Hike delivered! She took me off the beaten path to discover incredible petroglyphs I never would have found on my own. It felt like a real adventure, and Lydia's enthusiasm made it even better. She's a wonderful guide and a wonderful human. She leads with knowledge and also observantly steps out of the scene when you want to sit, admire, and ponder. Don't miss the chance to go to this or other hidden gems with Lydia! 10/10!
