About This Trail
A single-track BLM National Recreation Trail that winds roughly 2.2 miles (one way) through the Fisher Towers, a maze of soaring sandstone fins, spires, and pinnacles northeast of Moab off UT-128. The cairned route dips into side canyons and traverses beneath vertical cliffs, ending near the base of the Titan with distant views of the Colorado River, Castle Valley, and the La Sal Mountains. It is administered by the BLM Moab Field Office and starts at a small trailhead and campground with a vault toilet.
