Upper Muley Twist Canyon Trail offers a striking journey through Capitol Reef National Park’s rugged terrain. This challenging trail winds through red and white rock formations, providing impressive views against a vast blue sky. Hikers should pay attention to cairns marking the path, especially on the rim portion, as navigation can be tricky. The area is remote and offers excellent stargazing opportunities due to its dark skies and minimal light pollution. Essential supplies like water and sturdy footwear are recommended. Visitors also appreciate the nearby Strike Valley Overlook for its spectacular vistas. This trail is ideal for experienced hikers looking to immerse themselves in the park’s natural beauty.
