Red Canyon - Recreation galore!
On the way to Bryce Canyon be sure to stop and enjoy Red Canyon
in Dixie National Forest. It's not unusual for the visitor driving Scenic
Byway 12, to think they have arrived in Bryce Canyon, as they view the red rock
hoodoos towering around them.

for a user friendly area to relax, camp and enjoy, then look no further than
Southern Utah's Red Canyon or Cedar
Mountain, both part of Dixie National Forest .
