All of the places mentioned here are great. To return the favor, a fantastic place for kids to roam in southern Utah is Goblin Valley. So many places to hike, and fun alien looking hoodoos to play around. Hope to hear from you again! Thank you for visiting TheOutdoorMom.com! All of the places mentioned here are great.

It can be pretty crowded (especially on even days when mountain bikes are allowed), but once you get off the Pipeline and Dog Lake trails you can hike for hours without seeing too many other people. On odd-numbered days, when The Steve isn't allowed in Millcreek, we'll hit Neff's Canyon. Neff's doesn't offer as many opportunities (just two trails), but it's a nice hike up the mountain.
