Hiking

Cedar Breaks offers three trails ranging from short "leg-stretchers" walks to moderate or difficult walks.

Camping

Come join us for a spectacular camping experience at 10,000 feet elevation. Ranger campfire programs each night in the 28 site campground with many other visitor activities.

Wildflowers & Fall Colors

Cedar Breaks is an excellent location for wildflower walks in the summer and brilliant leaf color in autumn. Come visit Cedar Breaks during our annual Wildflower Festivals in July. Late September to early October offer the best views of leaf colors in Cedar Mountain, rated by USA Today as "one of the top ten places to experience fall colors" in the United States.

Ranger-led Activities

Join a Park Ranger to learn more about Cedar Breaks National Monument. Topics include geology, animals, plants, human history, and more. Programs include guided hikes, daytime talks, and evening programs at Point Supreme Campground. All programs are free. Check with the Visitor Center for times, places, and subjects.

Star Parties

To celebrate and share the beauty of our dark skies, Cedar Breaks throws a series of monthly "Star Parties." Star parties include a special evening program in the Point Supreme Campground followed by star viewing through several large telescopes at the Point Supreme Overlook. Visitors with their own telescopes are invited to bring them along.

Junior Ranger Program

During your visit, make sure to stop by the Visitor Center to pick up your Junior Ranger booklet. Once completed, see a Ranger to receive your badge!
