Take This Winding Road In Utah For Truly Breathtaking Views

The Burr Trail from Bullfrog to Boulder is 67 miles long, and features some of Utah's most stunning scenery. Along the way, you'll pass through Glen Canyon National Recreational Area, Capitol Reef National Park and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.

The Burr Trail was established by John Burr around 1876, as a way to move his cattle from summer to winter feeding grounds. It now connects Boulder and Bullfrog, along a stretch of very scenic highway.

About half of the trail is paved - the other half is graded dirt road.

You might experience some washboard along the unpaved portion, but the views are worth it.

These switchbacks, however, are not for the faint of heart.

The paved portion stretches from Boulder to Capitol Reef National Park.

The Burr Trail take you through Long Canyon.

Singing Canyon, a small slot canyon in Long Canyon, makes for a nice little hike.

The Waterpocket Fold Stretches for nearly 100 miles.

The road offers some beautiful views of the Henry Mountains and Capitol Reef.

Peek-A-Boo Arch is just one of the many sandstone features you'll see along the way.

Stop at the Hall Creek Overlook for this stunning vista.
