Willis Creek is an easy going and family-friendly slot canyon that easily ranks among the best slot canyons in the Southwest. Many locals consider it their favorite to explore due to a gentle stream that winds through the sculpted sandstone walls that rise higher and tighten as you walk, creating a cool, echoing corridor of shifting light and color.
In winter the stream can freeze over, turning the narrows into a sparkling frozen passage and giving the canyon a completely different kind of beauty and making for a fun time. Every turn reveals fresh patterns and textures, making Willis Creek a standout experience near Bryce Canyon for visitors of every age and ability.
Guests have the option to drive a UTV on this tour.

ERICA L.

We booked the Sunset and Smores tour and had the BEST TIME EVER! Our tour guides were awesome and made the trip about us and what we wanted to do. We even got the opportunity to sandboard on the dunes. Driving the UTV was a blast! We haven't laughed that hard in ages! Totally worth the trip off the beaten path for this tour!

My sister and I booked a UTV trip with Roam today and we both had a BLAST!!! I think we were both smiling the entire time. The UTVs themselves are so incredibly fun to drive, the surrounding area was beautiful, and we got to go to so many cool sites.


There’s so much to see and do in Bryce Canyon that it can be hard to know where to begin. Here are a few tips, tricks, and recommendations to help you make the most of your time in the park.

 

About Bryce Canyon

Bryce Canyon National Park is world-famous for its hoodoos, natural amphitheaters, sunrise and sunset viewpoints, and starry night skies. Designated an International Dark Sky Park, it’s one of the best stargazing destinations in America. Pair your park visit with the ROAM Stargazing S’mores Tour for the ultimate experience.

 

Hours of Operation and Location

The park is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You can enter the park through the north entrance on Highway 63, just off Scenic Byway 12. Or, if you're joining us for a tour, we will gather near Tropic, Utah, a city just minutes from the entrance for quick access to the backcountry routes.

How to Get to Bryce

Bryce Canyon National Park is located in south-central Utah along Highway 63, just off Scenic Byway 12 near Bryce Canyon City.

 

From Las Vegas (LAS) – roughly 270 miles; take I-15 north to UT-20 east, then US-89 south and UT-12 east to Highway 63.

 

From Salt Lake City (SLC) – about 270 miles; follow I-15 south to UT-20 east, then US-89 south and UT-12 east to Highway 63.

 

From Phoenix (PHX) – about 350 miles; drive I-17 north to I-40 east, then US-89 north and UT-12 east to Highway 63.

 

Regional airports make the trip even shorter: St. George Regional Airport (SGU) is about 125 miles and Page Municipal Airport (PGA) is about 150 miles away. After your flight, rent a car or RV to enjoy the scenic approach along Utah’s Scenic Byway 12.
