Description: The Wahweap Hoodoos Trailhead, located in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah, serves as the starting point for a scenic hike through a unique and otherworldly landscape of hoodoos, sandstone formations, and stunning desert vistas. The trailhead is situated near the town of Big Water, Utah, and provides access to the Wahweap Hoodoos, a collection of towering rock spires and formations sculpted by erosion over millions of years. The hike to the hoodoos is approximately 3.5 miles round trip and offers moderate terrain with some steep sections and rocky terrain. As hikers make their way along the trail, they are treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding desert landscape, including expansive views of Lake Powell and the surrounding canyons. The hoodoos themselves are a highlight of the hike, with their tall, slender rock formations rising majestically from the desert floor, creating a surreal and otherworldly scene. The Wahweap Hoodoos Trailhead is also a popular spot for photography, with opportunities to capture stunning images of the unique rock formations against the backdrop of the desert landscape. Visitors are encouraged to bring plenty of water, sunscreen, and sturdy footwear, as the trail can be hot and exposed, especially during the summer months.
