If you're looking for a non-technical slot canyon hike with plenty of opportunities for photo opps, then head to Little WIld Horse & Bell Canyon. Located near Hanksville in the San Rafael Swell, Little Wild Horse & Bell Canyon is a moderately challenging hike that makes for a great introduction to exploring slot canyons. 

While there is a little bit of scrambling required if you want to complete the full loop though Little Wild Horse and Bell Canyon, the hike is easy to navigate. If you’re looking for an easier hike, then opt for an out-and-back through Little Wild Horse Canyon. You can access some of the most photogenic portions of the canyon before things get too difficult. Be aware, both canyons are prone to flash floods, so do not attempt this hike if rain is ANYWHERE in the vicinity!
