Drive to Muley Point, Utah

Add to My List Check Off

Muley Point is a remote, scenic overlook in southern Utah near Mexican Hat. The view provides panoramic vistas of the desert landscape of southern Utah and northern Arizona. Monument Valley is visible in the distance while the San Juan River cuts into the canyon below. It's really worth the effort to get here! This is a peaceful isolated place that has few visitors, and has many places where it is possible to drive off road and camp right at the edge of the sheer cliffs - one of the best (free) camping places in Utah. Located at the end of a five mile gravel road off Rte. 261, Muley Point is 25 miles (40 km) south of Natural Bridges National Monument and 20 miles (32 km) north of the Arizona border. The raod ascends 1,200 feet and is steep but is not too scary.
