Description

Most of the trails at Dead Horse Point have great views, but this one might be the very best - and that's saying a lot here! You can see part of the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park.

There are several sand traps that you'll probably have to walk through, and some minor technical climbs, but nothing very difficult to distract from another excellent quality trail. The nice smooth flow is a result of lots of excellent work that involves tons of rock and dirt being moved, but looking completely natural.

5th trail while at DeadHorsePoint. The trail is fun but very technical and if you don't pay attention, you may get impaled by a twisted tree! — 0h 15m

While I rated this Intermediate, it IS doable by new riders. "Harder" sections are short, and there is no risk because the trail is far from exposure.
