Most of what you’ll be doing is walking on a river bed or sand throughout most of the hike. The hike is scenic, but not challenging:Īt least for most people. There is also a sign on the trailhead with a map, but you can also get it on Alltrails (which is what I did). Once you pass that incline area (the road also zigzags in that spot), it’s just more of the same flat and dirty roads to reach the trailhead, which is quite large and can fit a few dozen cars.

An SUV with AWD will do fine in that part, so before you go there, just have the proper vehicle type with you.

Most regular cars can drive it, but there is a section which involves a massive incline on that same dirt road which I honestly don’t think regular cars can do, and if they can, it’s just too risky. Wherever you are coming from, a chunk of the drive you’ll have to do to reach the trailhead (about 10 miles) involves being on a dirt and rocky road. Honestly, the “hardest” part of this hike is actually getting there by car. You’ll need an AWD car to get to the Willis Creek Slot Canyon trailhead: Other than these 5 things (which I do recommend reading further about as I’ll detail more things), this “hike” is amazing because of the scenery and it’s a great introduction to exploring one of the many slot canyons in Utah, and in this case a pretty safe and easy one.
