There is so much to do and see in Southern Utah. Gooseberry Mesa Utah is located not far from Saint George, Utah. If you love slick rock cycling, this is for you. A visit to the area may want to include several days or even more. Cycling is very popular here as well as hiking, climbing, wilderness camping, exploring the rock formations and nature. Here’s whats close by:

Zion National Park

Vermilion Cliffs

Hurricane Cliffs

The Black Ridge

Hurricane Mesa

The Dixie National Forest with The Pine Valley Mountain Wilderness Area

Smithsonian Butte

Beaver Dam Mountains and Mojave Desert Joshua Tree Road

and the list just goes on and on! The area tends to get a bit rural and remote. Caution should always be used in these rural areas of the USA. Cell phone service may not be available and the use of guide service and rentals can be a lifesaver. Lots of water is required in this high desert area of the southwest.
