6 Hiking Trails in St. George That You Shouldn't Miss

June 15, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

St. George is central to some of the most dramatic natural beauty in the American West, from the Mojave Desert to Zion National Park and the Pine Valley Mountains. While its summers are hot, St. George's mild and largely snow-free winters make it popular with golfers, hikers and bikers. In fact, Brigham Young wintered here – his home in town is open to the public.

Little Black Mountain Petroglyph Site

Reviewed By EDWARDP961 - Spring Branch, United States

This place is not hard to find once you get good directions. Had to go to Google to get the coordinates. Take highway 7 east from I15. Go to river road and take the gravel road heading south. You will see a petroglyph sign within a quarter mile or so. Then the adventures begin. It is a rough long road. You will eventually get there. The petroglyphs are still visible though a bit weathered. The hike is short as promised.

St. George Temple Quarry Trail

Reviewed By randy2trips - Keller, United States

Easy hiking trail overlooking parts of St George, UT and ends at a rock quarry where the early pioneers "mined" huge rocks that were used for the foundation of the city's Mormon Temple.
