Best State Parks in Southern Utah

Best State Parks in Southern Utah

There are many great state parks in southern Utah for you to visit. Every park is unique and offers a thoroughly distinct experience. Here are my top 3 beloved state parks in the state of Utah.

1. Sand Hollow

I love sand hollow, maybe because I am a water person, but it is a great place to take the family. The park consists of a large manmade lake which has a estimate of rock islands. The largest one is probably about a half mile wide by a quarter mile long and is about 50 yards away from the shore. If you can swim to it or take a boat you will find there is a lot to do and see. Sand hollow is also very predominant for its fishing and scuba diving.

2. Snow Canyon

Snow canyon is a great place to see lava flow and lava caves. The park has a blend of nature hikes, sand dunes, and lava flow making it a great attraction for all visitors.

One of the most provocative parts about the park is the lava caves which are caves that were created by lava flow as the inner layers of the lava prolonged to flow while the outer layers cooled.

3. Fremont Indian State Park

The Fremont Indian State park is an aged Fremont Indian village. The park is filled with aged paintings and carvings and is a great place to learn about this Native American tribe as well as get a feel for how they lived.
