Moab

NileGuide Expert Says:

Avoid in the heat of summer unless you just really want to raft down the river in 100+-degree weather. Many local businesses close then.

Moab
Moab, UT 84532

Description:

Moab is a classically diverse yet very unique Western town. Nearby areas include Arches National Park (entrance six miles from town), Canyonlands National Park (entrance 32 miles from town), Castle Valley, Cisco (a ghost town), and Crescent Junction (not much to see there, folks). Castle Valley is 20 miles east of Moab, nestled right under the awesome loom of the La Sal Mountains. This tiny community (approx. 300 residents) boasts artists, naturalists, grubby outdoor folk, and even a winery with a distinct desert terroir. Most visitors, however, head right for Moab. Moab is a destination unto itself, boasting world-class rock climbing and mountain biking, and being no slouch in the river rafting and kayaking department either, what with the Colorado River running right through town.
