Devil’s Garden Outstanding Natural Area
The Devil’s Garden Outstanding Natural Area is an absolute delight of slick rock and Colorado Plateau wonders in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument!
12.3 miles down the Hole-in-the-Rock Road, on the west side is this “Outstanding” Garden of twisted devilish Navajo Sandstone spires, hoodoos, windows, a delicate arch (Metate Arch), a natural bridge (Mano Arch), shapes, monsters, & more. There’s no real trail, just get out, snap pictures, and explore this fantastic spot below the gorgeous Straight Cliffs of the Kaiparowits Plateau.
At the parking lot is a pit toilet and some picnic tables with fire pits and elevated grills. The area is basically a miniature version of the amazing landscape to the south that the locals simply call “The Desert”.
