Trail Overview

Red Mountain is a great off-road trail located just outside of Vernal, Utah. This is open to anyone, but is most popular with ATVs, UTVs, and Jeeps. The area makes a great half-day to full-day ride. The trailhead has a large parking lot with a bathroom. The trail climbs a large mesa with panoramic views before descending down to a reservoir, and then to Moonshine Arch, before returning to the trailhead.

This may be a 8/10 rating for an atv or sxs, but it is a 2wd trail for a purpose built rock crawler. We didn’t come across anything that could’ve been an issue.
