  • Temple Mountain Road is the superhighway of the lower San Rafael Swell. While a great drive in itself, the bonus is it connects to many of the smaller adventure and sightseeing trails like Swasey's Cabin, Behind the Reef , North Temple Wash, Red’s Canyon Loop, Hidden Slendor and more. Around every curve, Temple Mountain Road offers breathtaking views of the colorful geology for which the San Rafael Swell is renowned. It's easy to see how the road got its name when looking at its namesake sandstone monolith. Ancient pictograph panels painted on shaded alcove walls beckon you to ponder both their meaning and the lives of those who created them centuries before. Camping opportunities are abundant along Temple Mountain Road and the numerous side trails. The short paved section on the eastern end of the road branches off to the whimsical Goblin Valley State Park. Temple Mountain Road is an easy drive with a tremendous payoff so it is a must do if you are in the area.
    Highest Elevation: 6869 Ft
    Length: 29 Miles

    And remember as I always say…"You won’t know if you don’t go!"
    Thanks for watching, take care and be safe out there!

    I love this area. I wish I could just go whenever I wanted but it's a long trip for me. This is like re-living it.

    Thanks for finishing your trip around Temple Mnt. Rd. I took a quick look at my 2011 trip on Temple Rd and only found 4 pics. Too busy looking around I suppose.😀 And I thought I was the only one that takes pics of signs! Thanks again.
