Don’t let the summer get by without you having the chance to visit Moab. Our Utah destination is the perfect spot for adventurers to get in some outdoor fun. Labor Day Weekend is a great time to visit right before summer ends and the kids have to return to school. A Labor Day Weekend trip to Moab offers plenty of exciting activities. Take a look at what you can expect.
Take an Arches National Park Guided Tour
Moab is home to the famous Arches National Park which is decorated with the namesake red stone arches. The best way to get around the park is by reserving a guided tour that takes you out into the park on a 4×4 vehicle. This type of tour allows you to have a tour guide driving you around the park so you can take in all of the sights. Some of the stops along many 4×4 guided tours include seeing dinosaur footprints left behind millions of years ago in the rocks, Balanced Rock, and Eye of the Whale. The last two stops just described are some of the Arches National Park’s most iconic features and can only be reached through a tour. These guided tours are sure to sell out, especially over an extended weekend such as Labor Day so book soon with any of the options here in town!
Explore Other Parks in the Area
If you don’t have time for a guided tour, make sure to head out onto the near-endless miles of hiking trails that encompass all of the local national parks. Canyonlands National Park is one of the big parks and features deep canyons into the horizon. For the true adventurers, you can explore these trails on the comfort of a mountain bike. Mountain biking is especially a big focus at Slickrock Loop which has made the area a bucket list place for mountain bikers everywhere. You can also explore Canyonlands National Park by water with a whitewater rafting trip down the Green River. Talk about some outdoor adventures!
