Situated in the Canyonlands Needles District, this four-wheel drive road offers a quick trip to the cliffs overlooking the mighty Colorado River. The Overlook is the easiest of backcountry roads within the Needles District, which has over 50 miles of roads which all lead you through the natural wonders of the area. This road takes you through the high desert with wide open views and it ends with an amazing view of the Colorado River and its associated canyons. A great side trip for anyone visiting the park that wants to get off the pavement.
