8Hike the Red Cliffs Recreation Nature Trail
This Red Cliffs hike in Hurricane allows you to explore an exceptional area in Southern Utah. It’s also one of the best family-friendly hikes in the state. This out-and-back hike is less than one and a half miles in total and has a comparatively mild elevation gain of 266 feet.
You start at the Red Cliffs Campground north of St. George. Here you trek along blue-water streams running through the red sandstone and pass a few small waterfalls. It provides an eye-catching contrast. There are footholds and a rope where the trail gets a little steep but nothing difficult. There are charges for parking and camping, of course.
