Excursão ao interior do Parque Nacional de Canyonlands
Descrição
Para realmente entender a escala bruta de Canyonlands, desça do pavimento e desça para o chão do canyon. Como concessionário autorizado do Serviço de Parques Nacionais, temos permissões exclusivas para levá-lo ao coração áspero das Canyonlands nesta aventura de meio dia. Nossa rota começa ao longo do corredor do rio Colorado e revela um deserto rochoso vermelho que a maioria dos visitantes do parque perde completamente. Os guias profissionais oferecem um olhar autêntico e profundamente informado sobre a história natural da região e camadas geológicas complexas. O caminho serve como uma linha de tempo viva da história da Terra, mostrando as camadas de rocha expostas dentro do parque. Ao longo do caminho, sairemos para examinar os petroglifos complicados deixados pelos Ancestral Puebloans, tomaremos a curva abrangente no Gooseneck Overlook e rastrearemos o White Rim para ver o Arco de Musselman. A viagem culmina com uma ascensão dramática até a face pura do penhasco através dos switchbacks Shafer Trail, entregando-o até o topo da mesa.

Itinerário
As pessoas que visitam os parques por conta própria geralmente só veem o que está ao longo da estrada de pavimento - este passeio se aventurará no backcountry 4x4 para uma experiência exquisita e única do Parque Nacional. Ao longo desta experiência de meio dia, você aprenderá tudo sobre os parques, a história e a geologia da área de Moab. Seu Guia apontará formações e outras paisagens imponentes ao longo do caminho. Paramos com frequência para fotos, mas há pouca caminhada. Áreas visíveis nesta excursão incluem, mas não estão limitadas a, Potash Road, Shafer Trail, Musselman Arch, Ancient Petroglyphs (Rock Carvings), Thelma and Louise point, e vistas deslumbrantes do cânion.
Potash Road como ele esculpe ao longo do rio Colorado, rastreando sob penhascos vermelhos elevados antes do pavimento termina e o verdadeiro backcountry começa
Fique debaixo dos elevados penhascos, onde petroglifos centenários deixados por culturas antigas são gravados no verniz do deserto escuro.
Subiremos o lendário Shafer Trail, uma série deslumbrante de switbacks de sujeira que abraçam o lado do penhasco, oferecendo vistas abrangentes e panorâmicas que se abrem mais amplamente a cada virada à medida que subimos para a parte superior da ilha na Sky Mesa.
Pararemos para olhar para o Musselman Arch, uma impressionante ponte de pedra plana que se desliza sobre uma queda de 300 pés até o chão do canyon, oferecendo um olhar dramático sobre o poder da erosão natural.
Milhares de metros acima do chão do canyon com vistas abrangentes de uma paisagem esculpida pelo tempo. Onde cada camada de areia exposta conta um capítulo diferente da antiga história geológica da Terra.

Our party of 4 really enjoyed all the beautiful sights that our guide, Ron took us to see. He was very informative. He was a terrific guide!
Kevin took my husband and I out for the afternoon and we saw so many cool sites and heard backstories. So glad we did this and also had an experienced driver
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We are so thrilled to hear you had a wonderful time with Kevin and were able to learn, explore all while feeling safe and comfortable! We hope to see you again and safe travels!
We had originally signed for a tour of Arches, but our guide, Kevin, offered us the back country tour of Canyonlands, explaining that the mall of the key sites are easily available by car in Archea. We accepted his offer and we really glad we did! The back country tour of Canyonlands was great, taking on steep and foreboding roads I would never drive down and out of canyons, but Kevin was so experienced a driver we always felt safe.It was like driving into and through the Grand Canyon, The next day we toured Arches on our own, Thanks Kevin you were right. Without having you for a guide, Canyonlands would have been just a bunch of scenic overlooks.
Highly recommend this tour. Kevin Walker was our tour guide. He is very personable and knowledgeable of the park, the history, the landscape, the flora and fauna. He entertained us with lots of stories. We felt very safe with him. We would not have been able to enjoy the park like this on our own.
Amazing tour with Kevin. Kevin made me feel safe on the back roads and he had so much information and many wonderful stories. I highly recommend this tour.
This is a great experience that stops to allow you to view and walk to many of the most iconic locations in Arches National Park. Its comfortable riding on good roads in a minibus with large open windows on both side for excellent photography - a welcome change after bouncing for hours on dirt tracks for other trips. Dane, our driver and guide, kept to the topics for each location, which made the drive even more informative. Listed as "senior-friendly", it is - but I would recommend it for anyone.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, we strive to create fun and unforgettable experiences for guests of all ages! We love that you would recommend this tour for all ages too! We hope to see you again and safe travels!
This is a great way to see Canyonlands! Kevin is an experienced driver/guide who gave us an amazing tour sharing the park’s history and little quirky facts which enriched our experience. The views were extraordinary! He pointed out details I would’ve never seen on my own. I recommend this experience wholeheartedly.
You will become immersed in the beauty and history of Canyonlands Island in the Sky on this tour. Kevin is an experienced and knowledgeable guide who is also an expert and very careful driver on this rigorous backcountry tour. He is exceptionally familiar with the terrain and surrounding areas. If you want a great Moab backcountry tour…go with Kevin to Canyonlands!
Since we did not want to drive our own Xtreme jeeps, we chose to do a half day Back Country Jeep Tour of Canyonlands NP. Kevin was an amazing guide - both personable and knowledgeable. He told us lots of interesting facts about the area around Moab and the park. We stopped to check out the Petroglyphs on Potash Rd., then on to a quick stop to see some dinosaur tracks nearby. It was fun to see where the end of the Thelma & Louise movie was filmed, but even more, just taking in the moment to enjoy the incredible beautify surrounding the area near Canyonlands and Dead Horse State Park. The best to me was getting to experience all this on the back roads. Fun!!
Kevin was an excellent driver and tourguide!
