Waterpocket Fold Offroad Tour to Strike Valley Overlook

Overview

Drive in a modified offroad vehicle in Capitol Reef National Park. The south district of the Park encompasses the largest defining feature in the park and most visitors have no idea what it is. The 100 + mile monocline is the longest in the western hemisphere. This “step-up” or warp in the rock layers showcase dramatic geological formations which one must see in person to truly appreciate the beauty which is why we strongly recommend this tour.

Each tour starts by first passing completely through the monocline of Capitol Reef from one side to the other. Much of the drive is relatively smooth, while other parts are slow and rough getting to a few of these iconic spots.

Numerous enjoyable short hikes can be experienced in this region as canyon walls provide shade from the heat. Guides will call the evening prior to discuss tour options.
