About
Imported descriptionVermilion Cliffs Highway embarks from the spectacular Virgin River Gorge, south of St. George, Utah, to the Navajo Nation Indian Reservation in the east. The Vermilion Cliffs Highway traverses some of the most vast and picturesque landscapes in the West. You can follow 277 miles of paved highways, passing through small rural communities. Scenic overlooks and historic sites along the highways show how people explored and survived in this remote area of northern Arizona. In many cases, the highways follow historic transportation routes used for centuries by different cultures from American Indian tribes, Spanish explorers and pioneers to modern travelers.
