10. The Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, Kanab

Here you will find warm (unsurprisingly) pink sand that is a natural byproduct of the erosion of the Navajo sandstone in the area. Today the lovely landscape here features rust-colored cliffs and pink-peach tinted sand that contrasts with the often pastel blue skies. Here you can go ATV riding, camping, horseback riding, hiking, sandboarding, and wildlife watching. Stay to see the stunning sunset and the stargazing.

 

11. The Bonneville Salt Flats, Wendover

The well-known Bonneville Salt Flats cover an area of 30,000 white salt-crusted acres of the Great Salt Lake’s western edge. This snow-white area is so flat and so vast that it initially inspires otherworldly imaginings. Visit in the spring when the winter snow has melted into crystal clear water and mirrors the massive mountain ranges that surround it. Keep in mind though, that depending on when you visit, the conditions may be extreme so dress appropriately. Avoid driving over the flats as the saltwater is quite corrosive, and a vehicle could easily get stuck in the mud under the salt crust.
