Dramatic Devil’s Garden – Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument

Lets wander in another geological wonder located in south central Utah, United States. The Devil’s Garden at the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is a protected area featuring hoodoos, natural arches and sandstone formations.

A definite stop on the “Hole-In-The-Rock” road. The 0.5 mile moderately trafficked loop trail takes you through a maze of rock playground and offers scenic views of desert landscape.
