Canyoneering

One of the reasons the desert entices so many visitors is because when you are out here, you don't do ordinary things! The most spectacular aspects of the Southern Utah desert are hidden within its vast canyon networks, formed by millennia of wind and water. Canyoneering adventures offer you not only the rare chance to be inside these remarkable creations, but also the adventure of rappelling. A fun combination of hiking, scrambling over obstacles, and the use of ropes to descend the short drops encountered in the magnificent canyons. If you want excitement, Canyoneering (which includes some rappelling) can be fun for the entire family and often is suitable for kids as young as 10 years old.
