Upcoming Events

Hiking

Cedar Breaks offers three trails accommodating all skill levels. Whether its a shady stroll through the forest or a hike along the rim, our trails have something for everyone. There is also a fourth, more strenuous trail just north of the park for experienced hikers.

Camping

Come join us for a spectacular camping experience at 10,000 feet elevation. Ranger-led evening programs are offered on weekends in the 28 site campground.

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 on Cedar Mountain. Cedar Breaks was 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, interpretive talks, and evening programs at Point Supreme Campground. All programs are free. Check with the Visitor Center for times, places, and subjects.

Star Parties
