Trail Overview

Red Creek Road is a maintained Forest Service Road that is traveled frequently to Red Creek Reservoir from Paragonah. The route also leads to many other mountain roads and can be used as a connector to trails to cross the mountain to Panguitch. The trail on the west side of the reservoir takes you through a beautiful canyon as you descend from the reservoir. The reservoir has camping and restroom facilities that are open seasonally. This is a great place for a lunch on the trail if that timeframe presents itself. The trails up the mountain vary in difficulty with some being impassable for larger vehicles with off-camber, boggy, and narrow conditions on some of those side trails. There are also many adventures to be enjoyed with the proper equipment; you may wish to bring a fishing pole.

Difficulty

The lower portion of the road can be traversed by almost any road worthy vehicle as it is graded and maintained frequently. The upper portion (east of the reservoir) is steeper and with some rocky sections, requiring 4WD under certain weather conditions.
